I’m thankful:
· That God loves me and that He died to save me
· For a family I love, that loves me
· For a job I enjoy and even look forward to (most the time)
· That I’m an American, with all that means
· That my present and future are in God’s hands, and I don’t have to worry about making that great move, missing that perfect opportunity, looking out for myself – I know He has it totally under control
· For how lavish God is with his gifts – He didn’t give us just a couple of different kinds of birds or even a couple dozen, He gave us hundreds. He didn’t give us just a handful of different flowers, he gave us hundreds and each one has its unique color and scent. He didn’t give us food just to sustain life, but He gave us thousands of different, wonderful things to eat.
· For the beauty of creation and the eyes to see it. Especially in the early morning and early evening when the sky is a soft, velvety dark blue.
· For music and bird song and children’s laughter and the ears to hear it
· For the Holy Spirit, living within me and making more like Christ every day
So, what are you thankful for?

My wonderful husband and amazing son.
That I have a roof over my head every night.
My large family that I love and adore.
Good friends.
A job that challenges me and that I really like for a change.
The ability to bake well.
That I live in a country that allows all of us the freedom to speak our minds.
That I found this website a year and a half ago. It's been a blessing.

Gods Grace, Love, and Forgiveness. Family Friends: the ones I see every day, the ones I may not see for a year at a time, and those that I only know through BOL. The beauty in this world, and the promise of the next

The memories of times with family members who have gone to be with the Lord.
The legacy of faith from my mom and dad, who faced really tough times and just trusted more.
Family members who enthusiastically contribute to new memories.
Friends who are always there.
Cats who just love you more the smellier your feet are.
Hugs
Music
