thankful---

Everything that I am thankful for or have ever been thankful for, really comes down to this. ---- My God.

Because with my God...
He has given me my family,
He has blessed me with the life he has given me .
He has given me life and my health
He has countless times forgiven me
And countless times been patient with me
He has been my light in any dark place
He has always been reaching his hand out for mine.
He has given me my husband
And given him all the amazing qualities I get to be blessed by.
He has given me vision and a desire
And he has never once said I was not good enough
He has always been here, if there's one person it is God who has never left my side.
He's been here for every birthday, every graduation, every friendship, every relationship, ever hardship, every fall.
It is him who has never left me stranded, but steared me back to shore.
He has loved me for my entire life. If there was ever any moment in my life where I felt like I was not loved, it has always been God who has always loved me.
He has never hurt me.
He doesn't just choose when he wants to be my father, he has always always been him.
He has built qualities in me
He has made me stronger
He has made me who I am today.

Everything in my life that has brought me to where I am is because of an unfailing love, an encounter that I had with my God years ago who swept me off my feet who has believed in me more than I have believed in him. A God who turns the ashes into beauty and a God who died to know you. There's people in this world who do not even know the man who died to know them. I am thankful that God has given me the opportunity to be a light in the darkness , a God who has chosen YOU and I to help this world meet him.

At the end of the day, I can say that I'm thankful for my friends, family, what's for dinner, dessert, my puppy, the food in my fridge, my health, music, art, the money in my pocket and the money in my bank. The list can go on, and yes these are all great things. But all of these things are only because of my God who has blessed me with them, everything is meaningless without God. With God all things have meaning.

 So I am thankful for my God who has made everything possible.
