What are you thankful for?

Postby rocklobster » Wed Nov 11, 2009 3:19 pm

We're getting pretty close to Thanksgiving. So, what's your reason for celebrating Turkey Day?
Here's what I'm thankful for:
Being healthy
Having a loving family
The fact that God loves me no matter how much I screw up
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you. I appointed you to be a prophet of all nations."
--Jeremiah 1:5

I'm honestly thankful for more then I could possibly describe within this post. Each day I see more and more how much God has truly blessed me and am therefore becoming more and more thankful for all that he has done, is doing, and will do.

The promise of salvation, not despite, but because of, my falling far short of actually deserving it.

Worship music. We just can't (and certainly shouldn't) keep all that joy bottled up. What better way to release it than by shouting "Hallelujah!" to the One who put it there.

I am thankful for the Lord continually providing for me in ways that I may never express thankfulness for, or perhaps may never even be aware of.

I am thankful to THE LORD for always blessing me and for THE LORD sending His Son Jesus Christ to die and rise again for my sins and for Sending His Wonderful And Beautiful Comforter The Holy Spirit!!!

I thank THE LORD for keeping me in HIS hands and always Watching over me. Making sure that I don't brake anything when I trip (I can be quite clumsy.).

GOD bless you all!! Have a happy and safe Thanksgiving!!!

And save some turkey for me. :D

I'm thankful to God for:

- My amazing husband
- Having a roof over my head
- Being blessed with furnishings to put under that roof
- My (relative) good health
- My most excellent friends, both locally and online
- My family, even if I don't like them sometimes
- Having plenty of good food to eat
- Being able to pay all our bills
- Sunny days
- Snowy days
- Rainy days
- Warm days (but not hot ones XD)
- Music (seriously, I don't know what I would do without it)
- and last but most definitely not least, Jesus Christ; without Him I wouldn't be around to enjoy any of these things.

Happy Thanksgiving, you crazy kids.

Where to even start on this one. I'm thankful for SOOO many things. How could I possibly list them all. I have a wonderful wife. I have a pretty solid job. I have a wonderful church where I can get actively involved. I have an awesome site here! I have a house that's relatively clean and sealed up to keep the bugs out. I have a car that's paid for, and enough gas to get to work everyday. I honestly don't have anything I really want that I don't have. I am so thankful for so much.

1) My family.
2) My church.
3) The fact that I am not blind.
4) My job.

That would probably be my top four.

The fact that one full project, one organization project and two take home tests, despite keeping me from my family and keeping me under non-stopped stress entirely ruining my Thanksgiving... still mark the end of a semester which means they can't give me any more ^_^!

Outside of that... I'm thankful God doesn't hang up the phone on me if I call him via prayer-mail at 3:15 AM in the morning to chat. :P

On a smaller note... that I have a Sobe Pina Collada drink and pumpkin pie completely at my disposal while I "celebrate" the wonderful intricacies of group theory.

For God and Jesus' sacrifice for me.

My family. ( a lot of people have broken families or families that don't get along and I'm extremely thankful that I've been blessed with a Christian family that gets along for the most part)

My best friend in the entire world, Tim. We've been dating for almost 3 years and God gave him to me right after both my grandparents died and I felt so alone and he's made my life so happy!

Everything he's given me (house, money, clothes) so many people across the world don't have what I have and I'm really thankful for what I have and I wish I could share it with the world.

The extra paycheck for working Thanksgiving.

;~;

No really, I'd much rather have a feast with my family than go to work today. It sucks ._.

Anyway...

God

My family

My home

My job- even if it can be a pain in the neck

Happy Thanksgiving guys :)

I just hope today more people thought it best to stay home and not go out to Walmart* today.
