Thankful

I am thankful for...

Three wonderful dogs. As crazy as they may be I still can't imagine life without them.

Having a home to live in. Some of the men from church went on a mission trip to Mexico a couple of weeks ago. To hear them talk about the house they built that was the size of a bedroom made me realize how much I take for granted the beautiful home Jeff and I live in.

A wonderful husband who loves me.

Never having to worry if I have the right clothes to wear when it is cold, if there is going to be food to eat at meal times, if we have the money to pay the bills, etc.

Kind, wonderful friends. With no family in Waco, our friends have become like family. God has put some great people in our lives for support and friendship.

Family...Jeff and I are extremely blessed to have parents and extended family who love us. Living in Waco, we don't get to see our families as often as we would like and are thankful for the times we do get to spend with them.

Unchanging, never-ending love from God. I tend to get wrapped up in myself and my life. Knowing that God still loves me despite my weaknesses, imperfections and self-centeredness is amazing.

Life...the present and eternal. I am thankful for Jeff's and my health and knowing that when we leave this earth, life is not over.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
