“For God alone my soul waits in silence; from Him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall never be shaken.”

I can never remember a time when God and my Lord Jesus Christ weren’t a real part of my life, and lived in my house just as my family did. There have been times when I’ve had my hand in God’s hand and just couldn’t let go. He is my friend whom I talk to everyday – in good times and bad. I thank Him everyday for giving us His wonderful gift, His Son Jesus Christ, and the assurance of eternal life; and that when I pray in Jesus’ name, He hears my prayers. He may not always answer them the way I’d planned, but His answer is always the right answer for me because I’m His and He loves me.

THANK YOU, GOD, FOR YOUR SON, FOR THE STRENGTH YOU’VE GIVEN ME ALL MY LIFE, FOR MY FAMILY, MY FRIENDS AND THE BEAUTIFUL EARTH ON WHICH I LIVE. IN JESUS’ NAME. AMEN.
