I know as believers, we're all thankful that Jesus Christ paid our sin debt at Calvary, but there are so many things we should be thankful for.
I'll start, I'm truly thankful for just waking up this morning, and being available one more day, for God to use me for his glory.
Children to love and train for the Lord and the joy they bring daily.
Greetings MrBill
I am so thankful for the pain in my hip. Some nights the pain is very bad and I can not sleep but I have found in HIM a reason to be thankful. During this time, in the wee hours of the morning HE and I have time alone together. Time when the cares of the world can not intrude and I can sit and listen to know HIS heart for me. Time to learn to seek HIM and depend upon HIM all the more. Time to pray for others and learn to surrender all things. In those times I am reminded of how vital it is that I remain in HIM and never seek to run ahead on my own.
God bless you Mr. Bill

For redemption.
Wife and daughter.
Brothers and sisters in the Lord.
Shelter and food and clothing.
Friends who are unsaved because I am eager to see God save them, and this is hope for which to be thankful.
Ability to work and provide as God allows.
I am thankful for good health, for me and my husband. I am reminded of this - and greatly humbled - when I see my peers and those younger struggle with serious health issues. We can work - not as productive as those younger but we can and do work. When I compare my blessings with others' less fortunate I am reminded how fragile health is.
Am also grateful for the relationship we have with our children - even those who have given us grief in the past.
Thankful for grandchildren who are serious in their walk with the LORD - including a granddaughter who asks me to pray she would be led by the Holy Spirit in her relationship with a young man.
All I can say is God has been merciful and gracious to us.
Thank-you, LORD!
