Thank you. (Luke 16 v 5 )

'Thank you', is a common expression it is often on my lips,when people open a door  for you,we do it with our hand when we are driving,someone lets us out at road junction.We say it by sending someone a thank you card for a kindness shown.On refection ,one wishes one had said more thank you's ,to the parents that brought us up. Sometimes our thank you's are just from our lips,not our hearts,I often thank God for his many mercies to me.Yet even though that's true the half has not been revealed to us ,of all God's goodness ,even during our life time.What dangers he has saved us from, the hidden hand of God is always at work for us, He has shut doors , holding us back,saving us from making the wrong decisions,and all that, would have entailed.It was Robert M.M'Cheyne, who wrote the following words.

                                             'When this passing world is done,

                                             When has sunk the radiant sun,

                                             When I stand with Christ on high,

                                             Looking o'er life's history,

                                            Then ,Lord, on earth to know,

                                             Not to then how much I know'

                                                     

                                                      'Thank you Lord'.
