It is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2:8

Gratitude & Thanksgiving


Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie


Today I am grateful for many things. I have the most amazing family and friends, two amazing daughters, an amazing husband who is spending Thanksgiving in Afghanistan fighting for our country. We miss him so much but know he is safe in Gods hands. I thank God daily for all his blessings. I am most richly blessed!
