SO VERY THANKFUL
Today's reading:  1 Timothy 1-3
"How thankful I am to Christ Jesus our Lord for considering me trustworthy and appointing me to serve Him, even though I used to..."  1 Timothy 1:12
I know, I know, Paul wrote the words, but I take a personal claim to them--because that's my testimony in a nutshell!
To think, He's given me te privilege to lead a great group of gals in Bible study each and every Sunday morning?  Amazing, considering who I once was!
And?  Well, I'm holding the awesome responsibility of teaching the littlest ones in church this morning.  What an opportunity for this one who was once lost!
A young boy to raise for Christ?  Given to me as a gift?  As if I'm supposed to know how?  Someone like me should have never, ever, been given such a blessing in this life!
A family to reach for Him? A lumberyard to impact with His presence?  A neighborhood to mark with His mercy?  A world to minister to?  A church to work in?
Never in a million years should I have been given the privileges Christ has placed in my life.  I am so very thankful to God for considering me trustworthy and capable of sharing Him!
