Thankful Thursday: He Holds Everything Together

"He is before all things, and in him all things hold together." Colossians 1:17


Today, I am thankful that in Him all things hold together.
  • Ken and I celebrated 21 years of marriage this summer.
In Him all things hold together.
  • We are a family with two teenagers, and we still enjoy spending time together (at least most of the time...ha!).
In Him all things hold together.
  • We've been pastoring our church for 16 years, and are still loving it!
In Him all things hold together.
  • We have a beautiful home, and I've been able to be a stay-at-home mom for the last 16 years.
In Him all things hold together.

In Him all things hold together.

Lord, I thank you that you are God, you are before all things, and that in you all things hold together. You are our awesome Creator, and you make everything beautiful in its time. As a mom, I am always trying to hold everything together, and do things in my own strength. However, you are God and I am not, and I can look to you for strength, wisdom, and hope as I parent, be a wife, minister, and just live day by day. You, Lord, are the glue that holds my marriage together, and keeps my family united. You are my strength, when I am weak. You are my hope, when things feel hopeless. You are my light, when the days seem dark. You are God, and in you all things hold together...even me.
