Thankfulness

The holidays are fast approaching and I wanted to take the time to list some of the many things that I am thankful for.  We always say we are thankful but do we every really take the time to sit down and Thank God for all the many blessings that he has given us? 

Thanksgiving:

• I am Thankful for a loving, merciful Lord and Savior that sent his only son to die on the cross for my sins
• I am Thankful that God's Grace is more than enough for me
• I am Thankful that God is always patient with me and loves me UNCONDITIONALLY, even when I have done wrong, taken the wrong path, have not so nice thoughts, and many other times!
• I am Thankful for being able to completely Trust in God for everything and know that he is taking care of me and my family!
• I am Thankful to live in a country where I can openly and freely declare my faith and love for God
• I am Thankful for our Soldiers (past and present) that fight for my right to live in a free country 
• Thank You Uncle Mid, Clay and Lee for all that you have done and continue to do for our country by serving in our Military!  There have been many sacrifices ya'll have been through, but you continue to give it your all for your family and our country!
• I am Thankful for the best husband that I could ever ask for. He is so selfless, giving, caring, protecting, encouraging, loving and generous! He amazes me everyday with his loving kindness
• I am Thankful for 2 handsome precious boys that God has given Ryan and I to raise, I can't imagine my life without them! They are my world!

• I am Thankful for the jobs that Ryan and I are blessed to have, especially during the economic hard times this country is facing.
• I am Thankful that I have a place to call home, that keeps my family safe and warm.  A place where many memories have taken place and will continue to take place.
• I am Thankful for the opportunity to be able to further my education to better myself and  my family.

There are SO many things to be thankful for!  So many times I take things for granted and then I am reminded of all those people in the world that have far less that I do and it puts things in perspective!

Count Your Many Blessings!
Happy Thanksgiving and may each and everyone of you be blessed in all that you do!
God Bless!
