It is Thanksgiving.
There are so so many things for which to be thankful. Family I love, who love me. Amazing kids who make me so proud. And of course a loving little fur ball J
I eat every day; I have transportation to a job I love. I have friends nearby and far away. My body is healthy, my mind alert, my sense of humor intact. I sleep in a warm bed every night. And God is always there…always…faithful and unchanging.
I can laugh at wit and cry at movies. I can care and love and befriend. I know my flaws but also embrace my strengths. Thank goodness for a strict minister years and years ago, who encouraged us to hide verses in our hearts and minds, so that we can recall them…
This I recall to mind, therefore I have hope; the Lord’s lovingkindnesses never fail. They are new every morning…
Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning…
I have loved you with an everlasting love…
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me…
I will never leave you or forsake you….
There is much to be thankful for, always.
