I Am Thankful




As we celebrate this Thanksgiving with family, friends and loved one; I just want to say how thankful I am for each and every one God has placed in my life – wonderful family and friends. Some for a reason, others for a season, nevertheless I am forever thankful and I love each of you dearly. Our lives overflow with things to be thankful for, and because God gives us the eyes to see how incredibly we have been blessed. He is good; His love endures forever. (1 Chronicles 5:13). Look around – the list of things we have is much longer than the things we don't. Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! (2 Corinthians 9:15) Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. (1 Thess. 5:18)


Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 5:19-20)
 

 One week ago today, I said good-bye to my sweet little friend Phoenix. Although, it was most painful; I am over-joyed by all the happy memories and joy he brought into our lives. I miss him terribly but I am so thankful for the almost 15 years we got to share with him. He was loved by everyone. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised. (Job 1:21) O Lord my God, I will give thanks forever. (Psalm 30:12)

I will praise the Lord with everything within me and I will not forget all His blessings and benefits. I will praise His Holy Name. Amen! (Psalm 103:2)

 
I Am Thankful!


Have an awesome day! Now good enjoy yourselves and eat too much turkey - I know I am!!!
