I'm not sure there is enough space or time to properly enumerate all of the blessings I have to be thankful for this year. I can start off by saying I am so thankful for Christ. I am thankful that he died for my sins and gives me the invitation to be one of his children. I'm thankful that he continues to walk with me on this journey of ups and downs and through dark nights and stormy days. I am thankful for his presence that lights up the nights and reminds me of his love always.
I can also give thanks for my wife and the love that she showers on me over and over and over again. I am truly blessed that she believes in marriage and has so much patience as we continue to grow together.
I give thanks for my children, each of which have been a unique blessing. From the first child, down to the last they have been amazing gifts from God. They have their own unique personalities, challenges, and rewards. It is a joy to see them grow up and to know that one day they will have children of their own.
I am thankful for my parents and grandparents, especially for living parents and a granddad who is still active in his eighties.
