thankful.

I feel the need to say that I'm thankful today.

Thankful for a husband who cares for me so well. Thankful for the most amazing parents who are still together and still love each other deeply. Thankful for sisters who double as best friends. Thankful that I've never gone hungry. Or been without a home. Thankful for wonderful friends who feel more like family. Thankful for a good job. Thankful for freedom to worship my savior. Thankful for peace and hope that passes understanding. Thankful for our two dogs who bring such joy to our lives. Thankful for a new house. Thankful that I don't even think twice about how I'll get to work in the morning or if I'll have food to eat or clothes to wear. Thankful that we are abundantly blessed.

I don't know why we are, but Lord I'm thankful. So thankful.

"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."  1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
