Thanksgiving

Psalm 95:2

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!

1 Chronicles 16:34

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His steadfast love endures forever!

There are so many things in life that I am thankful for. I could never even begin to mention all the things God has greatly blessed me with. I love Thanksgiving because I am reminded of how truly blessed I am. I am thankful for these things everyday but especially on this day of Thanksgiving...

I Am Thankful For...

Life and Salvation - assurance that I will spend eternity in heaven 

Mercy and Grace - forgiveness that I am so underserving of

Will - my very best friend and the love of my life, we have a fantastic relationship and a great marriage

Emma - a love I never knew could exist that grows stronger each and everyday

Annie - I know she's just a dog but she is a huge part of my life and brings me such happiness

Food - I never have to worry where my next meal is coming from

Shelter - I have a warm bed to sleep in every night

Transportation - I can get myself safely and efficiently from here to there 

Income - Will and I are both blessed with jobs that provide for our family 

Health - my family faces each day without health complications

Freedom - I can live each day freely in our great country, freedom sacrificially given 

Parents - I am so blessed with the most wonderful mom and dad that show me continuous love

Siblings - my two brothers and my sister I love with all my heart and love the relationships we have

Grandparents -  always been, always will be a huge part of my life, whether here on earth or in heaven

Great Aunt and Uncle - these two people are such a significant part of my life and I'm crazy about them

While life is filled with many ups and downs, we have so many things to give thanksgiving for, not just today but with every breath we take. 

1 Thessalonians 5:18 

In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
