Thankful??

Wednesday, November 18, 2009

As Thanksgiving approaches I was just wondering. Is it a time when we truly give thanks or is it a time to be off work and to over eat. Don't get me wrong I like the days off and the turkey dinner but I think we have forgotten the real reason for the holiday. This year will you take time to be thankful. Maybe you can share with someone you love your thankfulness that they are a part of your life. Why not start a list today of the things you have to be thankful for and when Thanksgiving arrives you can share it with those around the table.

    This is tough for me.

Blessings are like sins. We sin all of the time. We can't help it. Many we can either look back on or we have that moment where we say "Should I" and then go ahead. There are countless more that we have no conscious awareness of.

We also get blessings all the time. There are big obvious ones like the new job, the healing, our children, but there are also countless little ones that we never think about like that smile we get from a coworker when we are having a stinky day, our favorite type of apple being in the fruit bowl, someone who lets us onto the highway.

There is so much to be thankful for that it is tough to pick them all out.
