Gifts

I received some awesome gifts for my birthday this year! My husband and family are so thoughtful and generous. I often find myself reflecting on the gifts God has given me. I am so overwhelmed with God's love for me, because I deserve nothing. Jesus died a bloody, brutal death, paying a penalty I should pay each time I sin. The beauty and wretchedness of Jesus' death is incomprehensible. He chose to allow me to live, and to give me a choice to follow Him or not, freely laying down His spotless life without condition.

God gave me a husband who is generous, loving, thoughtful, and kind. He blessed us with a beautiful daughter who amazes me with her spunk and sweetness. He blessed us with a loving family and friends who support us and encourage us. He blesses us daily with everything we need.

Ephesians 5:28

In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

Psalm 127:3-5

Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth.

1 Timothy 6:8

But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content.

Philippians 4:19
And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
