Hey guys!
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and I received a wonderful email today from a friend of our family, Michael Ray, who reminded me of how much I have to be thankful for this season. It got me to thinking how wonderful it would be if we could all just take a second and think of just ONE thing we are THANKFUL for today.... and share it on our blog. I think so often we get so busy in the hustle and bustle of THANKSGIVING DAY that we forget to actually STOP and BE thankful...and GIVE thanks, to the GIVER of all that we have. We just get used to being blessed that we don't realize there are others out there who are suffering, hungry, sick, unable to enjoy sight and sounds and life! We are tremendously blessed by God! Let us NOT forget to give thanks today, tomorrow...and each day!
“In everything, give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”
~I Thessalonians 5:18

I hope you all have a wonderful day with your families tomorrow!
Love,
Dana A

Oh yeah... forgot to say WHAT I am thankful for this year... I am thankful for this new and perfect life that is growing in my tummy this year! :)
I know this sounds like the "right" answer or the "church" answer, but for me this year it is so true. I am so thankful for my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. He has blessed me, touched me, changed me, led me, protected me, saved me, loved me so much this year. I am so thankful that He has chosen to reveal Himself so much to me this year, and I hope it continues for the rest of my days. For my non "sunday school" answer, I would say I am so thankful for Jason, my husband. This year has really been an amazing year for us and our relationship. We have grown so much and learned so much, I am amazed by this wonderful man that God has chosen for me to spend my life with.
I have been overwhelmed by God's goodness as well. Rooster and I are so very humbled that in a time where many are struggling to feed their families, he and I are saving money and have a shield of protection over our finances. I am thankful the Lord has blessed us both with amazing jobs and wise money sense. GOD IS GOOD!!!!
