Remember
Remember his miracles
and all his wonders
and his fair decisions. ~ Psalm 105:5 (CEV)
Think how much the Father loves us. He loves us so much that he lets us be called his children, as we truly are. ~ 1 John 3:1a (CEV)
Heavenly Father, thank you for all that you have done for us -- the incredible acts that we experience as miracles -- your justice - your fatherly love that makes us your children. I regret that I take so much of that for granted. I don't think about your many gifts -- even though I think often of new things I'd like you to do for me. So, today the only thing I'm going to ask of you is that you remind me often of your love. I'm going to live as your well loved child. Amen.
