GIVE THANKS!

As the Holiday season in full swing-I think it's so important for everyone to stop for a moment in all the hustle and bustle and "GIVE THANKS" Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and I always feel like it is "skipped" over since these days it goes from halloween straight to chirstmas decorating, shopping and holiday events. Not only is thanksgiving great for the yummy turkey, but it is so much more than that. I think everyone-even the most miserable person can find at least something to be thankful for. Look around you-and give thanks to God for all the wonderful blessings he has given to you! I know God has blessed well beyond what I deserve and for that I am forever thankful. As Thanksgiving nears..I have been in thought alot about what I am thankful for in my life.

A few of the things I am thankful for:

God-who gave his son-to save me from my sins!

a wonderful husband and best friend who is so good to me

amazing parents-who are so unselfish and who love me more than I could imagine!

My inlaws-boy..did I ever get blessed!

all the kiddo's in my life

my extended family-who I don't see much but I think about and pray for everday!

My best friend Leisha-who has shown me TRUE friendship

My neice and best friend Ashley!

Our troops who put their lives on the line each day for our freedom!

The oppertunity to own a home

My great, reliable job

Good, faithful friends

my sisters: Violet, Tiffany and Emily! I always wanted a sister and I got 3 amazing ones!

Wise influence in my life

Love

The fact that God is in control in a very scary world

and so much more.......

Psalm 107:1

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever
