Happy Thanksgiving!!!



Here's hoping that you and yours have a BLESSED Thanksgiving.

I am so very thankful for.....

  • A God who loves me more than I can comprehend; though He knows all about me...the good, the bad and the ugly.
  • His one and only son, Jesus, who died on the cross for my sins (and yours) even though I did nothing to deserve it.
  • The gift of a husband who I love more each day and who never, never fails to tell/show me that he feels the same way.
  • The two blessings that are my children. I am thankful that He entrusted them with me for a time and pray that I'm honoring Him in their raising. I'm thankful that THEY teach ME a thing or two.
  • A big ol' family who is precious to me.
  • A church home that challenges me to hear more, study more, know more and be more. Ironically, I am so very thankful for the losses that this "family" has suffered this past year for, in this, I've seen Him at work ALL around me. I'll trade a building and its conveniences for a closer walk with Him any day of the week. (Edited to add....it is no one's fault but my own that I didn't walk more closely with Him WITH the building and its conveniences...that was not intended to be a slam toward the church but an observation regarding God's providence even in times of trial)
  • Many, many friends. Really REAL friends. The kind that some people live a lifetime and never have.

This post got me to thinking about my walk with God and how its not about where you are physically but where you are mentally and spiritualy. I am so thankful for you!
