Victory

I obviously am not doing a daily thankful routine because once I say I'm going to do it everyday religiously I won't. Character flaws lol any way today I realized how thankful I am for Jesus Christ my savior, and my friend. I could ramble on about how evident God has been in my life but I won't. Instead I just want to share how I KNOW God is real in the closest person to me. I'm not one to shove religion down anyones throat. I stick to my advice and opinions when only asked. I don't think I'm wrong or right in doing so thats just my personality. My point is I feel very safe on my blog sharing exactly how I feel because I'm not asking for feedback. Also maybe because today especially I feel the need to be thankful for a true Savior. Not one we try to find in man but one that actually can change us from the inside out. I also don't like cookie cutters... alright here I go enough rambling....

"I tell you, her sins--and they are many--
                   have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love.
                        But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love." 
Luke 7:47

My husband mentioned to me awhile back that so often we forget how grateful for salvation we should be. That really struck me b/c I do take it for granted sometimes through the business of life. I throw pity fits all the time about small little things when really I'm nothing and wouldn't be able to save myself even if i tried. Well as I was thinking about how grateful I am  for Gods salvation for me. I started to ponder on what in my life can I absolutely not deny Gods victorious power in. The first thought came to my mind was ...my husband. If I had to give one example (b/c by now I can give at least 100) of Gods victorious power in my personal life. where I knew without a doubt that God works miracles, and is real. Not just a one time deal but a real deal would be Michael Aceves. If anyone knew his life before and spent 1 hour with him they would walk away shocked. Jesus Christ lives in and through Him. He's not perfect but LOVES Jesus with all his heart. This is obviously not about michael or else that would be in the ''Im thankful for my husband'' day. Today I'm thankful for Jesus Christ and his daily reminder that He is alive. He truly is faithful and just to complete the good work he has started in someone. Not for my benefit as his wife or my kids benefit but simply b/c that is His sovereign will for every living soul on this earth. I've seen my husband turn from dark to light whole heartedly. I've seen Gods kindness through the hard time in Michaels life. I've seen God speak to him and reward him for being obedient. I've seen him treat him like a son and a be a Father to him. I've experienced and seen and I can't deny. I have also seen in my own life but it's different when theres a constant example in front of you. Its mind blowing when you think this is where we should be, BUT instead because of Gods GRACE we are here : )

It was just on my heart to share Jesus with you! I'm thankful

Luke 7:48 Then Jesus said to the woman, "Your sins are forgiven."
