Everything I Own is Merely a Loan!

I once heard a pastor use the words in this title, "Everything I Own Is Merely a Loan" - and it has stayed in my head and heart for many years! Sarah Young's words in today's devotional mean about the same thing and spoke as a reminder of God's blessings.

Once I accepted the fact that everything I am and "have" belong to God, it became somewhat of a spiritual "discipline" to thank Him daily in my "gratitude journal." I pray that if you don't do this kind of writing, you will begin doing so. It has made a tremendous difference in my life and I know it will in yours.

The lyrics in the hymn, "Give Thanks With a Grateful Heart" have repeatedly touched my heart and soul, and I pray that they do the same for you. Another hymn related to today's scripture from Psalm 119:1-5 is "Thy Word Is A Lamp Unto My Feet."
