I am thankful

[singlewv2011]

My son-in-law cooked a fantastic meal last night, and I enjoyed a great Thanksgiving with my kids and my grandson. I couldn't help but think of those less fortunate:
- My friends at the local prison I've met through Celebrate Recovery Inside, who weren't able to celebrate with their families
- My friends at the local mission, they were served an awesome meal but they are still homeless
- My most recent ex, who probably spent most of the day out stealing or worse to feed her habit.

I have a lot of complaints in general, but I have to admit God has been very good to me. I am blessed.

I agree with being thinkful for all that God has done. I drove over 800 miles this past week seeing family. It was a good time.

The night before Thanksgiving a twin engine plane crashed into the Superstition Mountains here in AZ. 7 people on board died including a woman's 3 children that she put on the plane to spend Thanksgiving with her ex husband (he also was on the plane).
My heart goes out to the woman and all those people's family.

It made me pause and think of how grateful I am just to be alive. Especially since my husband passed 6 years ago. I am grateful my children are healthy and alive (even though as teenagers they are driving me nuts). I am thankful to know Jesus as my Savior and to trust in Him for my salvation.

I heard about that plane crash. Sad. I'm also thankful for my two boys.
My oldest just left for Afghanistan for 10 months yesterday. ..
So have concerns for him. I welcome all who think to say a prayer for him.

Consider it said! Dear Lord, protect him while he is there under the shadow of your wings, and bring him home safely to his family.
