A blessing worth waiting for

Thankfulness is an important part of the Christian life; and even though the temptation to grumble and complain is ever so real, we can, by the simple act of counting our blessings, foster truly thankful hearts.

This week on the thankfulness series, Cathy McIntosh shares her story of gratitude to God for the gift of a mentor who came into her life at just the right time.

“Some of the steadfast lessons I learned during my wait are that God’s ways are perfect and that no one can thwart His plans. That message continues to resonate in my life and help me as I face a variety of trials and struggles. I thank Him every day that He helped me understand such a valuable truth.

I’m not proud of the way I focused on myself all those years ago. But I’m grateful that the Lord walked with me and began to mould me into His image. The Lord seems to move slowly, but we must take heart knowing that His timing is always perfect. His blessings are always worth the wait. Once we begin to understand, we can give thanks even while we experience delays.”
