Thankful Thursday

I have so much to be thankful for today, like every day.

It seems like change is something that happens all the time. Sometimes it happens to us, sometimes it happens through us, sometimes it happens in spite of us...I once heard that the only constant thing in life is change. I don't believe that for a second.

God is constant, He never changes! I am so thankful that I get to serve a Lord like that!!!

But even the change, I am thankful for. I know that we all have our own priorities in life and as the world around us changes we have to "adapt" or change so that our priorities will not be compromised. I am thankful that we have the freedoms in this great country to be able to make our own choices, move about freely, worship freely, and to express ourselves.

I am thankful for all the people I have in my life who encourage me to be the best that I can be - at whatever it may be. I am thankful for my family - near and far - and wish that there was not so much distance between us.

I am thankful for a great church with an amazing kids' program! And for being blessed with kids who are eager to learn and absorb God's truths!

I have so much more to be thankful for, but the dryer just beeped! :) Hey, I am even thankful for folding clothes in my own house, as opposed to the laundry rooms and laundry mats we used before having washer and dryer hook ups!!!

I hope that you all have a ton of things to be thankful for and that you would take a few minutes to reflect upon them, and give thanks! Have a blessed day!
