This is the eve of our celebration of thanksgiving! A time in America when families are gathered together and a feast is going on. Somehow,this year's end feels different. My immediate family is spread throughout the country!  And if I could say anything today,it would be that I am thankful to God for the privilege to be alive & well! When I look around this world & country,I count my blessings! When I go to work and see sick ,hurting or lonely people,then I realize, what's really important in this life!  I am thankful to God for what he has given me! I am thankful to my mother for my upbringing,to my siblings,my husband & children for putting up with me!!! For all those that have crossed my path, I realize today, that an imprint has been left in my life,showing that you were there!  What you left in my life's journey,no one else could! I thank God for where he's brought me from,where he has me right now and where he's leading me to! I am thankful that God gave me a second chance! Another minute,hour,day,another week,and year! I am thankful for being a servant for the Lord! And that he chose to use me,as an instrument of his divine service!  This is just my reasonable service!  For christ,you died that I might live! And in you,I live,breathe and have my very being!  Be thankful my friends,don't take the life Gods given you for granted!  Celebrate his grace and mercy!  Have a happy & blessed thanksgiving!

If you look at what is going on in the world today, alot of people might say "Why should we be be tHANful? " Well I am thankful for my family, for the freedom we have in this wonderful country of ours. I am thankful for the men and women who are out there right now putting their own lives on the line so that our children might have the same freedom that we had growing up. I am so very Thankful for my Lord Jesus Christ who died on the cross to save all  of us for our sins....my redeemer, my saviour. He gives me hope that tomorrow will come and that it WILL be a better day than today. I am thankful for my wonderful grandparents who raised me to be the woman I am today and for the inner strength that my grandmother showed me that I have. I am thankful for the husband I have right now, who does not beat my brains out like my ex-husband did for so many years....the Lord gave me the strength and the courage to get out of that!!!  I am thankful that God has given me the calling to Nursing and to help other young girls and women who are victims of child abuse and domestic violence....to teach them that there is always hope and always a way out. I am thankful for my life and my friends and the air I breathe. I praise God for the many blessings He has given me and the ones yet to come. Bless you all and I pray that everyone thakes the time to remember the True meaning of Christmas and why we celebrate it.....Happy birthday Jesus. And Merry Christmas to you all!!!

As most of you have said, it is definitely a pretty rough time in the economy.  It is in these times that we should definitely count our blessings.  I am most thankful for God blessing me with the opportunity to conceive and have a healthy baby boy (when I did not think that I could even get pregnant), for blessing me with the opportunity to meet and marry my soul mate, for our wonderful extended families, for blessing my husband with a wonderful job that allows us the opportunity to have a beautiful home, reliable cars and stable finances so that we don't have to worry about where we are going to sleep or how we are going to eat each day, and for giving us all great health and strength to make it through each day. 


When I sit and think about it, we take many things for granted when our lives are somewhat comfortable and I just ask God to allow my family to have a spirit of humility to know that someone out there is possibly not as fortunate as we are and we must constantly keep that in rememberance and thank God for each new day.  We must also extend our prayers and time (if possible) to help others in need.  There are many hurting and homeless people out there and my heart goes out to all.  I pray that God will bless them so that they can experience brighter and happier days!!!


May God bless each and every one of you in such troublesome times as these.

 It is a blessing to hear folks give thanks and praise to the Lord Jesus Christ for all that they have and particularly for salvation.  May you all continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

yes, there are so many things that we have to thank for in this life. His blessings are unstoppable and countless. But I'm most thankful for the salvation that God has given to us, I'm thankful that I've came to know the sovereign Lord. Testings in life are all natural while we're here in this world, the most important thing is we know where to find the courage and strength we need to cope up problems. and that there's God's words as guidance. Thanks for His revelations everyday. God is full of mercy, His unfailing love helps us to go on.


Laughter can reflect inward joy and happiness. There is a time to laugh and its good for the soul.

I am thankful for the greatest gift, which is salvation, and eternal life.  The second thing I am greatful for is the family God has blessed with me, including my immediate family and the boday of Christ.  My blessings are countless.  He has orchestrated my life in such a unique design that my faith, perserverance, and discernment have grown concerning His will for my life.  He has met all my needs.  We have a great God and knowing I have a personal relationship with the holy Father is a gratitude difficult to express.

What i am thankful most to our Lord Jesus Christ is the LIFE that he bestowed us.Creating us in His image and likeness is one imporant thing to be thankful of.The blessings that he showered us,the memories not only the joyful but also the sad memories that He reminded us to have more faith and trust in HIM.The trials and survival that he had given us.All God's creatures are the things that we should be thankful to God.The salvation and forgiveness,the courage and strenght that whenever we faced whatever challenges in life He was always there guiding us.The family and friends who are there for us are great gift given by God.The fulfillment in life whether you felt sometimes that it is not enough but still we should be thankful for all this things.The Love and mercy that we received everyday in our lives.We must have to be thankful all of this.

I am so thankful that God's character never changes! His goodness and His faithfulness are never dependent upon mine:) At the moment I'm also incredibly grateful to find this group! As a new nurse it's so exciting to meet other nurse's who are in love with Jesus!

       I am thankful for my family and that the Lord has never given up on me.  I thank him for my ultra sense of empathy that has served well in my practice as a nurse to the benifit of my patients.

I am grateful for God's grace and mery which is renewed daily! I am thankful that He has been with me through this most amazing journey and has gotten me through EVERY step and I know that what He has started He will finish.  I am also so very thankful for my family who has also been right there with me, believing in me. I can't wait to honor Him in this profession which has been my hearts desire as long as I can remember.
