Thursday Thankfuls 12/04

My sweet niece Amanda tagged me with a "Gratitude Tag". The rules, list 10 things you are thankful for. Since it goes with my normal Thursday Thankfuls I thought I would respond today. Here goes in no order except for number 1:


1. I am thankful for God's unbelievable love for me and you. That He gave His precious life so that our sins would be forgiven. All we have to do is ask.


2. I am thankful for my friends. Off line and on. There are people in this world that are alone with no earthly person in their life.


3. I am thankful for my job. With all the closings and lay offs there are many without work.


4. I am thankful for my home. There are many that sleep under bridges or any place they can find, with no permanent place of their own.


5. I am thankful for my health. I can see my beautiful grand children, hold them in my arms, smell their sweet scent and walk and talk with them.


6. I am thankful for each day I wake up and get another chance.


7. I am thankful for my family. Though some have gone on to be with our Lord, the memories are still with me.


8. I am thankful for memories. Old ones and new ones still coming.

9. I am thankful for forgiveness. I have to remind myself at times that I need to let go of hurt feelings and forgive so that I can be forgiven.

10. I am thankful for hugs. Can't you just feel that big ole bear hug from someone? I tell my sweet Kaylin every morning as she gets out of the car at school "feel God's hug then feel mine today". The few days I may not say it she now says "I'll feel your hug today and God's".



Okay I could go on and on. I'll save some for my future Thursday's. I won't tag anyone however, if you feel like sharing just go right ahead and blog it. God bless you all.
