1 Timothy 4:4-5
4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
5 for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer.
While I do my best throughout the year, it seems like I tend to focus much more and more intently on Jesus during the Thanksgiving and Christmas season. I think about how God sent His Son to us, knowing that one day, He would die upon a cross just to save us, poor wretched sinners. I then look at my children and know that it would be extremely hard to do. Yet, He did it. I don’t deserve the love, mercy and grace that He sends me daily. I don’t deserve the many blessings that He gives us daily. Yet, He continues to give. Yes, I am blessed. So blessed.
