Simple Thanks
Thursday, November 26, 2009 at 8:10AM Be Thankful
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know everything,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.

I Thessalonians 5:18 "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
I am most thankful for the simplest things in my life - my salvation through Jesus Christ, the love of my family and friends, the chance to learn and grow, provision of my basic needs, and for living in freedom and safety.
Happy Thanksgiving . . .
Let's Talk. What are you most thankful for?
