My Desktop Photo 92

Photo by Andrew Stark

This was taken just after sunset in Kluane National Park last weekend. Okay, it’s not really suitable for a desktop photo, but at least it’s recent.

To answer a question: These mountains are in the St. Elias Mountains. If you actually click on that link, you’ll find out that the St. Elias Mountains contain the highest peak in Canada, and numbers 2-5 highest, too. What’s more, they have the second highest and fifth highest peak in the U.S. (And now I guess you don’t have actually click to find that out, do you?)

Thankful Thursday

I’m thankful for the pink and white tulips in a vase on the table beside me.

I’m thankful for exquisite farm eggs.

I am thankful for Christ’s righteousness counted as mine, because the older I get, the more I see that all of my acts of obedience are tainted by motives that are less than perfect. Yep, and there’s more: The older I get, the more I see that no matter how old I get, that’s still going to be the case. If I had to produce my own righteous record, I’d be in big trouble. I’d have no hope, none, and by that I mean diddly-squat. But I do have hope—hope because God judges me “in Christ.” Instead of my own big fat zero, God looks at Christ’s perfection and sees it as mine. To which I say, “Thank you, Lord, for the sure hope of imputed righteousness!”

On Thursdays throughout this year, I plan to post a few thoughts of thanksgiving along with Kim at the Upward Call and others.
