I am Thankful

It's that time of year again...Happy Thanksgiving!
I love this time...the leaves are colorfull and on the ground, apple cider is always on hand, yummy fall candles are constantly burning, and pumpkin pie's are in the making. :)

Besides the food aspect of Thanksgiving, I love this holiday because it always makes me realize that I have so much to be thankful for...and alot of those things I take for grantide.
I thought I would make a list of only some of the things I am thankful for. I always do this at Thanksgiving. :)
(PS: sorry I've been MIA from the blog world lately :/ I gonna try to get better at this!)

I am thankful for....
-My Heavenly Father
who loves me unconditionally.
-The Holy Bible
God's words to me.
-The Gospel
no, not the 1st four books of the Bible. The Gospel.
-That the Inn in Jeruselem was full the night Jesus was to be born
otherwise the symbolism that Jesus was born for the rich and the poor would not exist.
-A roof over my head
with out it, I would be outside on the cold, 27 degree night.
-Food filling my pantry
there are so many people who don't know when their next meal will be.
-True friends
those people who never leave you...you know who you are. :)
-FrontLine
a youthgroup that encourages me in my walk with Christ.
-FL Senior girls
the girls who keep me accountable and help me grow in my relationship with Jesus.
-Team Haiti
the 15 people preparing to go to Haiti in March. All of them make me smile. Heller Heller!
-The FL band
the group of people who love to worship God through music...and love to lead.
-First Evangelical Free Church Wichita
the church I have been able to call home for nearly 18 years.
-My family
the people I love, feel comfortable with and who have my back. This would be my friends too. :)

I could go on...and on...and on with so many things that I am thankful for...but it's late...I'm tired...and the Macy's Day Parade is on early tomorrow! :)

So Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I'm thankful for you.
