God does so many wonderful things in our life! I would like to share several things that I am thankful for.Maybe you would like to share as well. :)


Im so thankful that God is who He is.So full of love ,mercy,compassion,and grace.His love is more wonderful than life.His glory is beyond understanding!His presence is the light and life of man.He is so wonderful I dont even have the words to describe His majesty.


I'm so thankful that God sent Jesus into the world to die for our sins,to wash us in His precious blood,and to make us whiter than snow.


Im so thankful that God sent His Holy Spirit to live in our hearts and help us live for Him each and every day.


Im so thankful for Gods Holy Word,it is a light to guide us in a dark and weary world.




I'm grateful for my health!We take it for granted sometimes,feeling like we're young and we'll live forever.But nothing is gauranteed,each day is a gift of God.Cherish it while it lasts.


Im thankful for family and friends.Without them life would be a lonely sad affair but with them life is a colorful,joyeous wonderful experience that offers something new and exciting each and every day.Cherish your friends and family.They dont last forever.There here for a little while and then the're gone.God is so good to give us helpers,faithful companions along the journey of life.Just another one of Gods many kindnesses.



Im thankful for the air to breathe,the blue sky,the sun shining down bright and the eyes to see it with.Im grateful to God for His beautiful flowers which bring joy to my heart and for the ability to stop and look deeply at these little graces that we so easily take for granted.The LORD has created such beauty! Enjoy it while it lasts.



Im thankful that God is the air I breath and that the LORD is my Heaven.
