Thanks A Ton

I struggle with understanding all the unbelievable stuff that’s in the “Good Book”.  Understanding the mystery of the bread and wine becoming the body and blood, the virgin birth thing, God asking Abraham to sacrificing his son and God actually sacrificing his only son...it is all beyond my comprehension.  In my tiny brain it just does not add up…I can’t make the math work.

But without fail everyday there is that moment in time when I get this unexplainable feeling…a feeling deep down in my bones…a feeling that reduces me to tears…a feeling that God is really real. 

Therefore is must conclude that God is God…and God can do anything…for nothing is impossible for God.  Regardless of whether I understand it or not.  After all I barely understand long division and have no clue when it come to  calculus…but I know it works.

So I’m OK with all those unbelievable mysteries of the Bible.  I hang on the promise God made to us and I wait in joyful hope for the deal of a lifetime…my undeserved reward.

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for all you’ve done.

Because of you my freedom’s won.

God’s only son, You are the One.

And so I say…“thanks a ton”.

Amen
