Happy Thanksgiving!

There are so many things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. I'm thankful that I have a roof over my head – unlike so many in this world. Not just the typical homeless, but also victims of hurricanes, wars, and other disasters.

I'm thankful for electricity. For heat and lights. Warmth and dry clothes. Comfort. These are things that not everyone can take for granted and I'm thankful to be blessed with so much.

I'm thankful for food. I'm not a naturally skillful cook, but my family has enough food to be full and satisfied.

I'm thankful that my folks are still alive and that my family is well. I'm thankful for my sweet, loving, children.
 
I'm thankful that I was born in a free country. That I have the freedom to read any books I want to read, to talk to anyone I want, to go anywhere I want (within my financial means of course). Most of all, I'm so thankful that I'm allowed to worship God freely. That morals and religion are not forced onto me by lawmakers, but something I am allowed to choose of my own free will.

I'm thankful for God and the free gift of salvation through Jesus' sacrifice.

Happy Thanksgiving!

  2. Have a blessed Thanksgiving all!

    I am thankful for our God and his son Jesus Christ who has sent the Holy Spirit to comfort us.

    I am thankful for the necessities he grants us and the priveleges he adds to it; for the trials we experience and grow through. For the resurrection he has promised us; to the church, my brethren and sisters; and to Suzi and ALL those who post and express their opinions and feelings and I pray we may all sift through the words to arive at the truth of the matter.

  5. I am thankful for Gods love for me while I did not deserve it. I am thankful for Gods promises throughout the bible. That he will not go back on his word. And for the work on the cross that Jesus did for us
