Well, guess I’m the first to read this this morning. I’m thankful this week for my wife and son! I’m thankful for every minute we have together…no matter how stressful some moments are. I’m thankful that we are starting to see an our debt get smaller through being better stewards of what God has given us.
I am thankful for life. I am thankful for those around me. I am thankful for the people and events that God places in my life that allow me to grow and understand His love. I am thankful for prayer. I am thankful for grace. I am thankful that Jesus is a part of my life.
I am thankful for God’s grace because without it, I would be looking at an eternity separated from God. I am thankful that God blessed our church family with a great worship Pastor. I am thankful for the times I stumble and fall in my walk with Christ and He is always there to help me up or carry me if necessary. I am thankful for the wisdom God has given me in leading a small group and thankful for the people who are part of it each week.
I am thankful that Titus is feeling much better and that no one else in the house has gotten the flu from him. I am thankful for bloggers who share what they are learning and what God is teaching them. I am thankful for God’s grace and no matter how much I mess up…well, His grace is still enough.
