when i make it a habit of remembering where He was, what He did, how He delivered us from the power of darkness, i live a life of abundant gratitude. gratitude builds trust.
"All gratitude is ultimately gratitude for Christ, all remembering a remembrance of Him. For in Him all things were created, are sustained, have their being. Thus Christ is all there is to give thanks for; Christ is all there is to remember." -Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts
still i recall these gifts He bestowed in my life, returning thanks all to Him.

For He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness,
