It's not me

This morning I did my gratitude list a little differently.

I used to close bars, now I close the church after our Friday night meetings.
I used to go wherever the party was, now I am willing to go wherever I can be of service.
I used to find excuses to miss work, now I find ways to show up even when I'm sick.
I used to hide from my responsibilities, today I face them with God's help.
I used to pretend I was better than I really am, now I freely admit that all glory and honor belong to God.

I'm grateful that God's work in me has been paying off beyond my wildest drunken fantasies. Thank You, Jesus.
