Day 5

As I said in a previous post, I believe God is directing me to go through TW again. I have not worked through it all, and I want to change.
Day 5 is called "My Body, Fearfully and Wonderfully Made."
As I went through the exercise of thanking God for each part of my body, I stand in awe of what God created. It is a miracle that everything functions today. The hands that use the fingers to pick up the smallest of items; the eyes that bless me to see everything God has created (my beautiful grandchildren, God's beautiful creation, the Bible); all these make me want to shout for joy, and I am doing that right now. Thank You God for my toes, my knees, my thighs, my hips, and I am not talking about what they look like but the job they perferm. Thank you for my elbows, my neck, my skull, for every joint, ligament, tendon, for every cell, tissue, organ, and organ system.

My daughter is the doing "The Lord's Table" and since I am her accountability partner, she sends me a copy of her lesson. Today's lesson talked about presenting your body to the Lord each day as a living sacrifice; to do it out loud, to say it to HIM.

I want to do that: Lord, I present my body to YOU as a living sacrifice today. As your power works in me, I can be what you want me to be, do what you want me to do,and say what you want me to say. Help me to lean totally on you, for in myself dwells no good thing. But when I am weak, then I am made strong.
