A happy heart

I AM THANKFUL FOR...


...My husband.  I'm simply so glad that God gave me David.  Being married to him brings me joy to my heart.  Every day I'm thankful for him, but especially today.


...My In-laws.  I'm very lucky that I married into such a great family.  They love the Lord and they love to cook too.  Amen.

...My Family.  My heart overflows when I think about the blessing they are to me.  I'm sad that I can't be with them today, but I love the memories of having Thanksgiving together growing up.  Either in North Carolina or at the beach, we always had the best times.   It brings a smile to my face.



...The  food that's in the oven.  Mmm mm mmm.  I think I just wiped a little drool off my chin.

...The really basic things.  I work with children every day who don't have the ability to walk or communicate  or eat or even hold their heads up straight.  I heard a little boy say he was excited because for the first time he would actually be able to eat the food at Thanksgiving this year.  Wow, that makes me thankful.

...God's mercy.  Because without that, none of the things above would matter.

Give thanks to the Lord today, He deserves all of our praises!
