What Are You Thankful For?

Yesterday was Thanksgiving and I was wondering what you are thankful for. As for me I have lots to be thankful for. When I start thinking about all the goodness that God has brought into my life I can’t thank Him enough.
Since I moved to the St. Louis area I have made a whole group of new friends. Not saying that I still don’t care about the ones I had before coming here. Sometimes we don’t understand why we experience all the changes in our life. When I came to this area God had a plan for my life. I didn’t know what that plan was and to be really frank with you I was scared.
I am not good at starting over and I had just spent over 16 years in Wisconsin and has a wonderful life there. But God had a plan for my life and He knew what was best.
A first I didn’t know what to do but I found that the folks in this area are really friendly. Over these past years I have come to know some really wonderful people. I am thankful for each of them and I know that God is using each of them to make my life better.
I thank God every day for all those He has brought into my life and for all the goodness He has extended to me. I hope you will take time to thank God today for all He has done for you.
