Thankful!

I am journeying through this life, sure that each and every day He reveals Himself to me.  I am learning about His word and how my life lessons are found there.. A friend said that I am learning and recognizing that I am learning because it's a living Bible and it applies to life today.  I never thought of the Bible in that way and must admit that it's an eye opening thought something that stays with me these days.

I cannot count the number of times that I've read and  not understood something important  - Old Testament.  A few weeks ago in Sunday School our teacher said that Jesus is revealed in the OT.  Now I am sure I've heard this many times before and this time it actually stuck.  I am currently reading the New Testament, involved in an online Bible Study.  It's been great!  Once we finish up, I'll definitely be starting the OT again.  I may even start this January since I have one of the chronological one year Bibles. 

I think it's important to recognize how great this life really is and how much God truly loves us and to just be thankful.  I am thankful for who I am, where I am, where I've been and where I am going!
