I'd like to meet:
Thanks God. Thank you for my salvation. Thanks for dying and giving me the chance to really live. Thanks for chasing me and whispering to me over and over. Thanks for always being there even when I rejected you and slapped you in the face. Thanks for crying for me and talking to the Father about me and being disappointed like any dad would be. Thanks for seeing me through and believing in my potential. Thanks for never giving up on me or giving me what I deserved. Thanks for hugging me and patting my head and telling me you have big plans for me. Thanks for the hope. Thanks for cleaning me up and for the most amazing gift of your Holy Spirit. Thanks for the encouragement and sensitivity. Thank you for speaking to me and through me in your incredible God way. Thanks for your secret languages and special boldness. Thanks for showing me to always hope, always trust and to never give up on people. Thanks for showing me that there could be no life outside you. Thanks for making it so easy for me to daily lay down my life and accept your better one, and thanks for reminding me why I do on the days it's hard. Thanks for the day I exit this earth and start my real life with you. Thanks a million times for the day you let me meet you. Thanks that then I will never stop to thank you and I can join in the chorus with the great forgotten heroes, the famous in heaven, the angels and family and friends to worship you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
