Thankful

I’m thankful for so many things and I just wanted to spit a few of them out today on here because they are fresh on my mind.

In no particular order…

• Doctors and medicine. I am so thankful for the minds and the money donated to finding cures, medicines, and funding the research needed to get these life changing medicines. I’m so thankful for the people that invest their time trying to help other people’s health and take time and care when dealing with their patients.
  
• Family. They are there in the thick and thin. I think the word family says it all.
  
• Friends that last a lifetime. These are the friends I can randomly email or text a prayer request or whatever even if we haven’t been able to catch up in 2 years or whatever and right away without any questions asked they offer their help or time or just an ear to listen. If you were in need, they would drop whatever in a moments notice to help.  These are the friends that send a text message early morning when they know it’s going to be long day just to help me feel comforted. Some of these friends are old from back in the day and some are fresh from just a few months. These are the friends that last a lifetime and I am so thankful for them.
  
• My husband. He is my best friend in the whole world and I would do anything for him. I love him so much. He stretches me and encourages me in so many aspects of my life. Even in the worst of times he finds the best of situations.
• God. He is the greatest comforter and reassurance. He humbles me. He brings peace like nothing else and gets me through everything. My faith and my hope are found in Him. I am so thankful to Him.

      I think it’s important to step back sometimes and realize all the many blessing we have in life that we so often take for granted. I have so much to be thankful for and this just barely touches the surface but you get the idea.
