If You Can Read This...

I expected the car sticker to say, “If you can read this, you are too close.” Instead it said, “If you can read this, you can thank a teacher.” What a great thought! Sometimes we forget to thank the very ones who have supplied us with the means to function in life. We take many things for granted, not remembering all the building blocks that have led to our development.

I think we can easily do that with God. We forget that He gave us the brain, the breath, and the ability to become someone special. We forget that He blesses constantly, through opportunity, through family and friends, and through His grace. But ultimately, we forget that through Jesus, He came down to earth to die on a cross in order to restore the broken relationship we had with God because of our sins.

If you can read this, don’t forget to thank the One who created you, Who loves you, and Who paid the ultimate price of His life to save you!
