I Give Thanks

From house to house, we find miniature altars placed on the walls. Within them sit statues, many depicting our Lord Jesus, who is often accompanied by other statues of saints, the Virgin Mary, many with rosaries wrapped around their little limbs. They peer down at us as we lead our Bible studies with apathy.

As I look up to match their stare, I give thanks to my Lord that I don't feel a need to pray to idols in order to atone for my sings.

I give thanks I don't believe I must pray a rosary in order to find favor in the eyes of God.

I give thanks that I know the living Jesus, not a little statue that never speaks to me.

Pray for those we meet... pray the Holy Spirit will convict them of their need for a relationship with the living God.
