Sunday Challenge... It's simple...what are you thankful for?
To participate, or just read everyone's posts, go here.
As I sit here, I know I have too much to ever list. God has been so good to me.
I am thankful...
For Christian grandparents who saved my life... and the life of my mother, by bringing us to know God; and for teaching us to have faith no matter what trials may come... for life is full of trials, but it is also full of blessings, miracles, love, and beauty.
For a loving, caring husband who has stood by me through all the loss, pain, uncertainty.
For two sons that are so dear to me. Sons I was told I might never be able to have. They are my miracles, my heart.
For a mother and an uncle who, by their example, taught me that faith is not dependant on a perfect life, a healthy life, a pain-free life... that you can walk in faith in the midst of pain. Pain, failure, sickness, disability do not define us... we are defined by Christ alone. He is our source of strength.
For family, For friends, For wonderful Pastors, For strength for this day...
For unending hope for the future. No matter who becomes our next President, I can walk in faith, without fear, because everything... Everything... is in the hands of my creator... my Father God and His dear son Jesus Christ.
I am thankful that I can believe in a bright tomorrow. I believe while we are traveling there, faith will carry us through the rough times.
I am thankful, so thankful...

Great and thankful minds work alike. I have been focusing on what I am thankful over at my blog and I am going to do it each day this month. Your life is rich with blessings.
Just wanted to say thank you for all the kind comments! Life is an up and down journey for all of us... it really helps me to take it one step at a time. The other thing that really helps are the prayers and the kindness of good friends! Thank you, thank you!
