I'm Thankful For

What am I thankful for?

I imagine Him standing next to His Father and looking past all the comforts of home.  Looking past all the friendly faces of the angels.  Looking past His position.  Until He saw me and said, "It's worth it!"

I imagine Him kneeling in the garden and looking past all the beatings.  Looking past the name calling.  Looking past the blood and tears.  Looking past the nails.  Until He saw me and said, "It's worth it!"

I imagine Him hanging on the cross and looking past death.  Looking past eternal separation from His Father.  Looking past the excruciating pain.  Looking past the grave.  Until He saw me and said, "It's worth it!"

I imagine Him standing next to His Father in Heaven and looking past all my mistakes.  Looking past all my failures.  Looking past all my doubts and fears.  Looking at me and saying, "Yeah, it was worth it and I'd do it again just for you!"

That's what I am thankful for.  And it's only By God's Amazing Grace.

What are you thankful for?
