"A true Christian is one who has not only peace of conscience, but war within."
~J.C. Ryle, Holiness
I'm a wee bit frustrated because I was *this* close to being finished with my blog post for Five Things Friday when somehow it all disappeared. Sigh. It's after 2am here, so I'm going to call it a night. I am leaving for your reading pleasure a quote that I read recently and liked. If you're unclear on what is means, drop me an email and I'll share my take on it.
In the meanwhile, I'm thankful that I have a computer (even if it doesn't always cooperate). I'm thankful for electricity. I thankful for the can of peanuts by my bed. I'm thankful for A/C in this hot climate. I'm thankful for a very good day filled with friends. I'm thankful for Pastor Dave's teaching on the 46th Psalm. I'm thankful that my Lord is my refuge and my strength. I'm thankful for Martin Luther's hymn. I'm thankful for Carmen's presence in the body of Christ. I'm thankful for old friends and for new friends. I'm thankful that you take the time to read my blog. I'm thankful for all of the amazing thinkers out there whose words have shaped my life thus far. I am thankful for those who love me in spirit and truth. I'm thankful for the conviction I feel in my heart. I'm thankful that I am already forgiven for everything I have done and will do. I'm thankful that there is nothing I can do that will make God love me more or love me less. I'm thankful for Jesus Christ who lived the life I should have lived and died the death I should have died so that I might have fellowship with Him. I am thankful for the Bible-- the most beautiful and spellbinding book I know.
