Nakia Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 And it all comes down to this...Thankful Day 24...Today I am thankful that the problems that I have are "first world problems" like the fact that there's nothing to watch on TV (when many don't even have electricity), my house is too small (when so many are homeless), there's no more peanut butter (when children in this world are starving), and that I can't decide which pictures to order from our photo shoot (when others can't afford paper to write on). Today I am made more aware of the fact that I am exceedingly blessed, and I hope as we begin the Christmas season, we remember those who are struggling and hurting and in desperate need of so much, including a Savior. Happy Thanksgiving! ♥ Sorry for the bold print. Copied and pasted from facebook. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm thankful for life. Physical life from my parents and eternal life from God. (So, Nakia, does this mean that we don't get to be thankful anymore?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I am so thankful for my dad's improving health and so incredibly thankful that my dh has been employed 10 months now and we are finally back on track. So thankful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariannNOVA Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) I am thankful that my dd31, who has been ill for 8 years, is practically a glowing picture of health today -- it's been baby steps all the way, and I am so thankful for the Lord's faithfulness, steadfastness, and for the fact that he has carried all of us the entire way. I am also thankful that today was the FIRST thanksgiving day since we've moved into this house (three years ago) that we had SUNSHINE and pleasant temps. I have wanted to serve our thanksgiving dinner on our screened porch since we moved in and have never been able to: rain/cold, bitter cold/windy, rain/sleet. But, today, sunshine, and we ate on the porch. Now I KNOW the house will sell, because I was finally able to have Thanksgiving Dinner on the porch!:D Edited November 25, 2011 by MariannNOVA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merry Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Thanksgiving service and then over our house for dinner. They looked so happy together. My new dil is so pretty, radiant, and kind. I'm so thankful for her and also thankful we could be together for Thanksgiving along with three of our other sons. And our two oldest who couldn't be with us today have plans to be with friends so I'm thankful for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
