Giving Thanks!

We were reminded at church that being thankful for what you do have, and not feeling down about what you wish you had, is the real secret to emotional health. A good reminder, as was suggested we should make a list of all the things we are thankful for. I'm going to start my list right here, but am mulling over the idea of turning this challenge into some kind of an art project. Until I can see that idea come to reality, here are some of the many things I am thankful for.

1. A God who loves and cares for me
2. An awesome husband and family
3. A place to live in comfort, that has heat, electricity and running water
4. A great job
5. The internet (connecting me to people I would not have in my life if I could not find them here)
6. My pets
7. My health
8. A car that runs well
9. Friends in Christ
10. The Word of God
11. The Holy Spirit
12. Salvation through Christ's Sacrifice
13. To live in the USA
14. Freedom
15. Abundance
16. God's Protection and Favor
17. Opportunities to serve
18. My creativity
19. A place to enjoy my hobbies
20. Insurance

Thanks for looking, What are you thankful for?
