I'll be honest; today finds me in an unthankful mood. Today I need to look for the gifts more than ever. So today, while I am struggling, I am thankful that:
#225. I am redeemed
#226. My sins are not only forgiven, but forgotten
#227. God doesn't grade sins according to how "bad" the sins are
#228. I didn't do anything to earn my salvation
#229. All have sinned - so no one person can judge
#230. If I confess my sins, He is faithful to forgive
#231. God convicts me of being prideful
#232. God forgives me for being prideful
#233. There is always hope for new beginnings
#234. God has used my past to give me my present
#235. God will forgive me again, even for the same sin
#236. There but for the grace of God...
