Episode 57: Grateful Heart

( I John 3:1; John 3:16; Eph 2:4-7) Today is about gratitude to God Thank you Lord for Your mercy; You did not give us what we deserve. Thank you Lord for Your grace; You gave us what we did not deserve. You came and gave us Your life; You graciously forgave us when we deserved death. We deserved sickness; but You were made sickness for us. We deserved poverty; but You gave us your riches. Thank You Lord for Your riches of goodness and mercy in our lives. I cannot thank You enough; with a grateful heart I say thank You Lord for loving us so much. “Behold what manner of love the father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God...” (I John 3:1, NKJV) “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16, NIV) “But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, 5 that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!) 6 For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. 7 So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.” (Ephesians 2:4-7)
