As Thanksgiving time draws near, I once again realize how much I have
for which to be thankful. Top of that list is my Heavenly Father. He
is so loving, so forgiving, so gentle in His leading, so willing to
guide and support! Thank you, Father, thank you!
I
think about the air I breath, the water I drink, the food I eat - and
my body that knows how to process all of that to keep me alive. Truly I
am "wonderfully made" (Psalms 139:14). The way my body functions -
even the way it works to heal when something goes wrong - all are gifts
from my heavenly Father. Thank you, Father, thank you!
I have shelter from the storms of life - the physical ones as well as the
emotional and spiritual ones! A warm home, friends who care, and most
of all a God who is INDEED "my refuge and strength" (Ps 46:1). Thank you, Father, thank you!
As I've started this new job, He has seen me through time and time again. He has sent so many people to aid and guide me! I am so grateful for
such supportive friends, and for the way He has impressed them to step
forward just when I needed them. He's given me strength and courage
when I needed it. He's given me guidance. And He's opened many doors. Thank you, Father, thank you!
I am
so grateful for friends and family! The old Swedish proverb really is
true, "Shared joy is a double joy, shared sorrow half". And I am so
grateful to have friends and family with whom to share my life! They
help me keep things in perspective, help me see things from other
viewpoints, and fill my life with love. Thank you, Father, thank you!
Father, this morning I again lift my praise to you. You are indeed a mighty fortress, a loving Father, and a gentle guide. I am so grateful!
