Thankful.

For two reasons am I writing this blog. First, although I strive to continually be thankful year-round, it is a bit more prominent during this time of year. And second, I saw my friend, Brooke, blog about the same thing and enjoyed reading it. Thanks, Brooke! :) There are so many things that I have to be thankful for...where do I begin?!



1. Jesus Christ. He has given me life, salvation, blessings, protection, happiness, and so, so much more! I am thankful that He loved me so much to die for me and then care about my little, insignificant life. It's indescribable! I want to forever live for Him.



2. Family. They are my everything! I am so thankful for the parents and siblings I have been given. I really couldn't ask for better. They are my support group & best friends.



3. Friends. I am thankful for the friends I have made throughout my life. They are all so dear to me. Whether near or far, new or old, I am thankful for the friendship of each one. Someone to talk to, share with, & laugh with!



4. My health. I can really take this for granted at times. I don't realize how blessed I am to have my health. There are others who are restricted and unable to enjoy life to the fullest because of their poor health. I am thankful I can breathe on my own, walk, eat, run, speak, hear, and live life!


(I can see how this list can get lengthy, so I'll continue in bullet points.)

  • My church
  • Education
  • Toby, my yorkie
  • The Bible
  • Food
  • Opportunity
  • USA
  • Creation
  • My home
  • My car
  • My cell phone
  • My paycheck
  • My ugg boots
  • Hope
  • You

What are you thankful for?
