At Thanksgiving dinner, it is a custom in many families to have each person at the table tell what they are thankful for. Although this has never been a custom in my family, I have always taken the time to think about what I am most thankful for. This year, I have decided to talk about what I am thankful for in blog form.
First and foremost, I am thankful that God is my personal Lord and Saviour. His love is all encompassing, and I am so very thankful that He died on the cross so that each and every one of us can have the opportunity to come to know and accept Him as our Lord and Saviour.
I am also thankful that my family will all be together for this day as well. My daughter is home safely from college and it’s so nice to have my household “back to normal”. We miss her so much. The dogs were even excited to see her walk through that door! Her brother has been counting down the days, and he is on cloud nine being able to spend time with her.
Last, but not least, I am so thankful for the miracle of each sunrise and sunset that God blesses me with. Each morning that I wake is a miracle, every breath I take, every step I take- all of it are simply miracles from God that I am truly thankful for.
I know this isn’t one of those deep, eloquent blogs, but it is from my heart. Please, take just a moment to thank God. He deserves it.
