Thanksgiving

I have been thinking this week of the things in which I am thankful. I wanted to come up with something profound. I realized the things we have to be thankful for are profound.... the miracles in life... I am thankful for a husband who loves me even when my hormones are haywire; I am thankful for two darling redheads; I am thankful for a beautiful home; I am thankful to be going to heaven one day; I am thankful for a church to worship in; I am thankful for my country; I am thankful for my dog, Rusty; I am thankful for friends; I am thankful for my education; I am thankful for my parents, my sister, brother-in-laws, sister-in-laws, mother in-law, father-in-law and nieces and nephew (some are greats).
I thank God each day for the blessing He gives me. But on Thanksgiving day, I seem to recall so much more..
Lord, let me slow down more often and give you thanks for your blessings!

Well said! I feel the same way...I am thankful everyday, but it is nice to be reminded to slow down and remember all of life's blessings, big and small.
