Thank You!

Dallas Willard's last words on earth were, "Thank You."  (Link)  That's a powerful statement on the life he lived, and the glory of a life lived as a disciple of Jesus.  Even in a world as broken as ours, when we allow Him to work redemption in and through us, we begin to see the glory of what He has made, we begin to taste the glory of what is to come, we even get to participate in the fruition of that future glory in the world around us.  The only response to such a life is, "Thank You!"

================================

"Come, all you who are thirsty,
   come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
   come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
   without money and without cost.
Why spend money on what is not bread,
   and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
   and you will delight in the richest of fare."
Isaiah 55:1-2
