Thoughts as I grow and learn

Early Thanksgiving!!

God is good, all the time and all the time, God is good.  This is something that we say at our Church a lot, but it is so true.  We are all blessed tremendously.  We all should reflect on those ways that we are blessed everyday and give thanks for them.

I have been seeing a lot of thankfulness lately on Facebook.  I’m not sure what it is but there have been a lot of my friend posting a daily Thankfulness comment.  I’m sure that this is something that is leading up to Thanksgiving next week, but I really haven’t see the start of it.  That’s no big deal for me though, because I have been living my thankfulness in other ways.

There’s been a lot going on in our lives over the last couple of months and that has hampered my blogging bit.  But the growth that I am experiencing has been a joy in spite of all that is required to get it.

This morning as I woke up and as I was doing my reading, I am really feeling gratitude and thanksfulness for so much in my life.  So since we are just about to Thanksgiving, I thought it would be okay to make a short list of things that I am thankful for.

1.  My family.  This would seem obvious, but they are my reason for doing so much.  I love them and they love me unconditionally.

2.  Friends.  To have great friends that you can talk with and live life with is so great.  In this group, I include my accountability group.  Accountability group is something that I have joined into this year with a couple of men from my Church but it is something that is so powerful.  I can’t say thank you enough to these men to allow me to meet and talk with them about all sorts of matters.

3. Health.  Some that know me, may question this, and with good reason.  But I choose to look at it this way, Round is a shape, so therefore, I am in shape.  Am I where I want to be in this area, no, but I am fortunate to not have major health concerns at this time.

Well those are my top three.  What about your’s?  It’s hard not to at least think about it over the next week for sure.  I invite you to share your thoughts with me.

I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving holiday.
