God Chooses You

Start every day with a Thank-You to God, because no matter what you are going through, if He weren’t by your side, it would be much worse. Even on days when you aren’t happy about the circumstances, say Thank You for the comfort of not going through it alone.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Lord, for being with me every single moment of every single day.
