Thankyou

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thankyou that you value me.
Thankyou for sending your son to die,
because you value me.
Thankyou that you don't give up on me 
as I give up on you.

Thankyou that you give your children each other. 
Thankyou that you know the road isn't always easy.
Thankyou for giving us the Holy Spirit, to help us fight
sin, fear and despair, with hope, light, and life with you. 

Thankyou that you care for us without reward.
Thankyou that your gifts are abundant. 
Thankyou that you use the weak to help the strong.
Thankyou that you equip us to do your work,
of spreading the gospel side by side. 

Thankyou for all the reasons that you give me 
to smile, dance, and sing for joy. 
Thankyou that when a Christian dies, we; 
as fellow members of Christ's body have tears falling on to smiles. 
Thankyou for giving us the hope and promise that one day,
when we are all gathered around your throne, you will wipe away every tear.
Thankyou that you can be relied on to keep your promises.

Amen.
