Give Thanks (part 2)

Yesterday in my blog post "Give Thanks" I mentioned that Father God may be reminding me something. Well I guess here it is.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NIV)
give thanks in all circumstances,
for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

I stay at work today. While working I was listening to the songs in my thumb drive. Suddenly I was attracted to this song, I began to play it over & over again. The lyrics touches my heart. The title; "In My Heart".

It reminded me that no matter what situation I am in, I must always be thankful of the greatest blessing Father has given me. And that is Jesus. I used to tell myself (as well as others) that no matter what happens, circumstances will not determine my joy in thanking my Father. I can always thank God for the cross. It is a fact that will never change. All that I am begins & end with the cross. Jesus's sacrifice on the cross, gave me the greatest reason to thank God.

Irregardless who I am, lame, blinds or bound by situations of the past, all these are not to bring me into a state of lamenting. I must always be reminded of the cross and be thankful.


If I was lame and could not walk
I would still run to where you are
I would just run inside my heart
And if I was blind and could not see
I would still know you're watching me
I would just look inside my heart

In my heart there is a fountain running deep
In my heart a shepherd watches over me
In my heart there is a place we always meet
In spite of what eyes see
In my heart I am free

If I was bound by lock, and chained
I would still love you just the same
I would know freedom in my heart
And if I was silenced physically
I would still shout inside of me
I can't be silenced in my heart!
