I ponder in a moment of unbridled beauty found in the benevolent blessing of our Father God...
We rest and are thankful, deep to the core, because of the blessed reassurance that our lives, each moment to the next, have been handcrafted and uniquely shaped according to the will of God. Not a moment has been left out; each relationship formed, circumstance encountered, and situation presented are woven together in a tapestry of immeasurable worth.
Praise be to this Father, this Master Weaver, for by His plan we, the most futile of instruments, can make His glory known.
How can it be that this Almighty One has reached down and invested in such lowly creatures, that He has redeemed this broken creation from the pit, that beautiful restoration and power has been offered to us? For this unprecedented grace, we are joyful beyond words.
Praise be to this Father, this Redeemer, for without Him, we are nothing.
Today is a day for rejoicing, a day for loud praise, and tears of joy, for we have been granted life and life abundant. The power that conquered death on the cross rests in the very depths of our souls. By this power, we are blessed to bring glory to God.
Praise be to this Father, this Giver of Life, for by Him, we have purpose.
