Thanksgiving for the year 2007

I want to thank God for:

1. Deepening my experience of His love through the ups and downs this year - the power of the Cross

2. Strengthening my faith in Him as I grow in the knowledge of how great and wonderful is He

3. Leading me into a new phase of life - MARRIAGE - where I experience the most intimate relationship ever. I am married to a man who loves me deeply and who has been God's conduit of unconditional love and acceptance. This relationship has truly healed me.

Hubby, thank you for standing by me...for loving me with commitment and perseverance...for making this journey of life less difficult and more enjoyable.

4. Leading me to a new firm which fits me better

5. Bringing my family closer together

6. Deepening my love for the adorable JYFers

7. Causing each youth to grow

8. People who have come to know Christ over the year

9. Fruitful ministry together with brothers and sisters in S-Word through EOs etc.

10. A growing caregroup

11. Friendships which have deepened through ups and downs and a deeper understanding of the importance of healthy relationships

I am sure there are lots more that I can thank Him for. All in all, it's been a good year, despite difficult times. God will never stop building up my faith in Him, a faith that is strong, a faith that will withstand all difficulties, a faith that lasts through eternity.

Thank you Lord for everything.
