My Challenge - Three Things I am Grateful for

in GEMS4 years ago

Happy Sunday to everyone on this platform. It is another beautiful though a rainy day.

So my pick for today's challenge is Three Things You are Grateful For.

Being grateful is the only way we can show we are happy about the things happening in our lives, the things God has done and given to us.

  • I am grateful for the gift of life:

So many younger than I, perhaps older than I am or of the same age have lost their lives and are long gone and forgotten. God has kept me and preserved my life to see today from the month of January to this day. I have every reason to be grateful to Him because I am not better than those in the mortuary or hospital or grave but I am in good health. I am grateful for my life because even in this period of COVID-19, He has preserved my life. Even in my darkest hour, He has kept me.

  • I am grateful for my family and friends.

If it has not been the Lord, it won't have been possible to get these beautiful people I call my family and friends. They have been the best and I did not choose them, God chooses them for me. He gave them to me because if it was left for me, I won't have chosen these wonderful people. They have been my backbone and the source of inspiration. I am grateful to God for these friends who have become part of me and have helped me in my growth.

  • I am grateful to God for the salvation of my soul:

    Who I am I that God sent His only begotten son to come and die on the cross for my sake. I am grateful to Him who came to die on the cross of calvary for my sake even while I was still a sinner. I am grateful that He saved me from my sins and gave me a brand new life and gave my life a meaning. Grateful that He accepted me into His kingdom and called me His own. He was wounded for my transgression, He was bruised for my iniquities, the chastisement of my peace was upon him, and with his stripes, I am healed. So, I am grateful to God for all He has done just for the salvation of my soul.
