O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
for his steadfast love endures forever.
Psalm
136:1
As I read through this psalm not too long ago, my eyes were drawn to
the word “love.” Love is a powerful emotion, and it has enhanced my life in
mind-boggling ways. Thinking about love pulls me to my family – my
wife Jennifer and our girls, Sierra and Scarlett. These three give me life.
They shower me with love and hugs and kisses every day. It is near impossible
to have a bad day when a little girl climbs on my lap, kisses me on the cheek,
and asks to have a book read to her. Yes, love is powerful and I experience it
in this gift of family.
So today I am celebrating the joy of love and family. I am thankful for the
blessings they have given me, for the support and nurture that I need. I am
thankful for the difficult days that I have with them, because in the struggles
the bonds of love grow stronger and the celebration are all that more joyful. I
am truly blessed with this family, and thankful for them.
