I love the Thanksgiving holiday and I'm just not willing to give it up. This is a great time of year to really zero in on your blessings. I like to look back over the year and see what God has done.
Of course, there are sad things, but there are so many wonderful good things to be thankful for.
Look at the good today and tomorrow, maybe it will help you in the days and years to come. I like the verses written here...
I asked God for strength, that I might achieve;
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for help that I might do greater things;
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.
I asked for riches that I might be happy;
I was given poverty that I might be wise.
I asked for power that I might have the praise of men;
I was given weakness that I might feel the need for God.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life;
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing that I asked for,
but everything I hoped for.
Almost despite myself,my unspoken prayers were answered;
I among women am most richly blessed.
