Thankful...

I am so thankful that I serve a God that never leaves me nor forsakes me. I am so thankful that when I am weak He is strong. I am thankful that no matter where I go, he is right there beside me. Sometimes He is the only reason I get through my day because He is carrying me through it. I am so thankful that He loves me for who I am, but doesn't want me to stay the same either. He wants me to become more like Him and will encourage me and whisper to me to stay focused on Him. I am learning that He won't yell at me from a distance, but will only whisper to me up close. I want to feel His breath on my face, and feel His arms wrapped around me. I want to be so intimate with Him that I never want to be in a place where He is not there. I want to be so much in love with Jesus that you can't tell me apart from Him. I am a royalty, and it is time I began to live like it.
