Daughter of the King

Yesterday was a day for affirmation for me. I can't tell you enough how God has blessed me. Id like to encourage my friends to sit back and really think through your own blessings. We are all children of the King. Number one blessing. When you really start to process and link events in your life together a level of thankfulness comes with it that you may not have in your everyday. Being thankful is so important, something my mother has engraved in me for a really long time. When we are thankful we stay humble. On days that I am lost, overwhelmed, or anxious I have to remind myself to be thankful and to be thankful for the knowledge that God will see me through that bad day as well. It is our privilege to be able to do that because we are his children. How awesome. I don't think anyone knows the true unconditional love that God has for us because as worldly humans... we sin. We aren't pure like Jesus. We strive to be. But I think that the unconditional love described by Jesus is far more than what we can imagine. Think about it... he loves you when you sin. He loves you when you turn away. He loves you when you are sad. He loves you when you are anxious. He loves you when you doubt.... and so many more. How many people can you count on your hands that can do that on a every day basis without ever questioning.

God is good. You can't deny it.

I am thankful I am a daughter of the King.
