There are so many things for which I am thankful. This is not a complete list but some of the things that I have been thinking of this week.

Spiritual~

  • God's great love that sent Him to die for me and my sins.
  • God's guidance that helps me to know his will.
  • A great church and Pastor.
  • A Godly heritage.

Family

  • A wonderful husband who I am more in love with than the day I married him.
  • Brittany~My oldest who is quickly becoming a beautiful young lady.
  • Walter~Who has a tender heart for God and desire to serve Him.
  • Charlie~Who is the most giving and helpful girl I know.
  • Chris~Who is the life of the party and completes our little family.
  • My brothers and sister who are not just siblings but great friends~I love you guys!
  • My Dad who has been a consistent example of Christ.

Material

  • In the two years since Tim was hurt, God has taken wonderful care of our financial needs.
  • For supplying us with a much needed van.
  • A warm house and a place to lay my head.

Physical

  • Healthy Kids and Family

Our family sang this song Sunday night in church. It pretty much sums it all up for me.

Thank You Lord, For your Blessings on Me
Written by: The Easter Brothers

Verse I

As the world looks upon me, as I struggle along
They say I have nothing, but they are so wrong
In my heart I’m rejoicing, how I wish they could see
Thank you Lord, for your blessings on me

Chorus

There’s a roof up above me
I’ve a good place to sleep
There’s food on my table
And shoes on my feet
You gave me your love Lord
And a fine family
Thank you Lord, for your blessings on me

Verse II

Now I know I’m not wealthy, and these clothes , they’re not new
I don’t have much money, but Lord I have you
And to me that’s all that matters, though the world cannot see
Thank you Lord, for your blessings on me

Have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving!
