I have so much to be thankful for in my life. And that is what I am thankful for,my life. I'm thankful my Mother and Father chose to give me life instead of aborting me. I'm thankful that Jesus died on the cross for my sins so that I could have eternal life with my heavenly Father. Without those 2 decisions, I would not have a life at all. I am thankful I get to stay at home and raise my 2 boys and take care of the home front, while my husband is away working. We live in a small apartment,but I am thankful for a shelter to call home. We live here rent free because of God. My life can be boring,hectic,and crazy at times,but I love it. I used to spend my days wishing I had this or that,wishing I was another person. Thank God He showed me how blessed I am and how unique I am. We can't live life mundanely in our relationships. We never know when we aren't promised tomorrow. So live life on purpose and enjoy it! You only get one here on earth. Hope you all have a great day!
Love reading about a thankful heart! May God continue to bless you in all your ways.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I had similar thoughts just the other day, while my husband and I were sitting at the supper table. The girls were off playing in a different room already, but he and I just sat at the big window, enjoying the play of light and shadow between the evening sun and the trees that surround our yard. We both decided that we really do love our life!
ReplyDeleteToo often we focus on the things we don't have that we think would make our lives easier or more fun, but really, the blessings are already too numerous to count. We just need to focus on THEM instead of the temporal desires!
