Thanksgiving!

Again the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man seeking goodly pearls:
Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.
Matthew 13:45-46

"For ye are bought with a price..." I Cor. 2:20a

"He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him freely give us all things?" Ro. 8:32

"Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift." II Cor. 9:15

God values each person! He gave everything to redeem (buy back) lost sinners. Such infinite love and grace cares for me! If this were the only thing I had, I could be thankful; however, He daily loadeth us with blessings!

He leaves the choice with us: Will you trust His Word not your own way? Will you receive the gift of Jesus' love evidenced in the shed blood of the cross? Do you realize how much God values you?

I like knowing that God paid so much for my salvation! When you pay dearly for something you take care of it. I can trust and not be afraid!
