Our topic for this week is a Thankful/Thanksgiving freebie. It is Thanksgiving week here in the US, so it is a season of gratitude and thankfulness. The past week has been a lot for me (I lost my job at the beginning of the week and finished out the week with a really bad stomach bug), but there are still so many things to be thankful for!
1. Salvation. Jesus. My Lord and Savior!
I would be nothing, and couldn’t deal with what life throws at me sometimes, if it weren’t for Him!
2. My mom.
She is my best friend. She always has something encouraging to say, and has always been my biggest supporter 🙂
3. My friends.
They encourage me. They’ve got my back!
4. Cats.
IYKYK. They are cute and cuddly, and always make me feel better, no matter what.
5. Books.
Sometimes, I just need to “escape reality” and what better way there going somewhere else through a book.
6. Travel.
Now this is literally escaping reality! I love seeing new places and learning about those places.
7. My church family.
Like family and friends, they encourage me!
8. Coffee.
It’s fuel – no other explanation needed.
9. The ability to walk, run, hike…to get outside.
Some people can’t get up and walk or get around at all. I never want to take that ability for granted.
10. A home to live in.
I have been aware for a while that we have homeless people in our little town, but I didn’t know where they stayed. But our church has recently been helping the homeless, so now they are at the front of my mind. Now that it is getting colder, I never, EVER want to take having a home for granted.
