Thankful?

Postby Furen » Tue Nov 16, 2010 5:16 pm

So I know for you Americans you have Thanksgiving approaching quickly, so a bit early I decided hey, let's tell everyone what we are thankful about!

I'll start,
I'm thankful that there's a community of strong believers and great friends that can get together! I'm thankful they are so welcoming, I'm thankful I'm a Canadian and can still do something like this despite the fact it's past for us.

I'm thankful I came to know God!
And this I pray, that your love would abound still, more and more with real knowledge and all discernment. Be prepared to preach the gospel at a moment's notice. Do you know the gospel well enough to do so yourself? Be ready.

I'm thankful for the many blessings God has given us. Me, I was born in a land where I'm free to worship God to my hearts content, which I need to do more often. Can't forget my family. We've had many hardships but not once did any of us leave with a grudge against another. A few always drive me crazy but every family tree is gonna have a few nuts in it anyway.
Psalms 82:3-4
Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless;
maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
Rescue the weak and needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

Sorry but do you mean, that you are thankful for God loving us so much he is willing to forgive and choose to remember no longer?

I am thankful that God is, God was, and God will be, and that He loves us so dearly in ways that only He can.

Amongst lots of other things, esp. family and the stuff already mentioned, I am thankful for the beautiful world that God has given us - esp. the colors of the autumn leaves and the smooth, soft snow.
- God is always with us, especially when we feel most alone.

Don't even get me started on rhyming. This one Chat incident... :sweat: Oh, never mind...

I'm thankful for my blessing of artistic creativity! I'm thankful for my loving and supportive family and friends, and for God's love and His beautiful creation.
Um... I'm also thankful for things like fuzzy socks, candy, anime, and coffee. They are kind to me on a daily basis. :D

Hehe, that it isn't up to us to be good enough, and that we have some sort of goal other than waiting till we kick the bucket. XD

I'm thankful that despite the rotten economy caused by the recent BP oil spill (and other reasons I won't bring up), we've got our mortgage paid off, so I still have a place to live if I outlive my parents.

I'm thankful for getting through grade school and going to college this year, as well as finding good friends to hang with and another year of financial stability.
