As we approach this holiday season, what are you thankful for?

I am thankful that I have Jesus in my Life, I have a roof over my head, a bed to sleep in, and food to eat. I am thankful for my little dog companion who keeps me company and fills my heart with joy! I have two daughters and two grandchildren and a wonderful son-in-law who I adore and lots of sisters and brothers that I am forever thankful and grateful for. My Mom recently passed away but I was very thankful for her as she lived to be 94 and I miss her! She was my best friend. I am thankful for the people in my life and I thank God every day that I am still healthy and can move about. He has given me so much to be thankful for and I am forever grateful. Amen
