Thankful

So many of our friends have faced storms 

in their lives this year

Some are enduring serious financial hardship,

some are battling cruel diseases...

A 25 year-old friend with bone cancer...

life interrupted...no complaining.

He's won many battles and is winning the war.

 A young dad with three little ones; his stomach has

been removed and his earthly future is uncertain.  

His students are learning much more than math from him

as he continues to teach; they are watching faith

alive as he trusts completely in his 

loving heavenly Father.

  On this day of giving thanks, I'm reminded to

really be thankful. Thankful for each day of life here with 

a loving family, treasured friends, an occupation that I love, and

all of you out there in blogland that inspire me daily. 

.

Most of all I'm thankful for a loving heavenly Father that

sacrificed his own son, to grant eternal life to all that believe.

"Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever." 

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
