Alright…so for the month of November I really
wanted to try to post something different each day about things that I am
thankful for…
And look at me…I already failed on day one!
Hahahaha…typical
But I am going to try my absolute HARDEST to
post at least one thing that I am thankful for each day this month…
I apologize ahead of time if some of them are
very short…and I apologize if I miss a day here and there…but like I said…I
will try my hardest.
So since according to what my “post date”
will be on this thing, it will look like I missed November 1st…even
though it is 12:40 at night and technically, since I have not slept at all, it
is still Friday to me…I’ll just act like it is November 1st and 2nd
and kill two birds with one stone by stating two things that I am thankful for
=]
Alright…
Numero Uno:
First and foremost…I am thankful for Christ
and His love for ALL of His children.
I know I know…that is kind of like me
cheating right? Haha but I don’t care. I have to put Him first because I know I
would not have anything to be thankful for if it weren’t for Him, seeing as ALL
of my blessings in life come from Him.
I am thankful that He gives me His love. Each
and every day. When I least deserve it and when I deserve it even less –
because I NEVER deserve it.
He loves me no matter what. And He fills me
with love for other people. That is incredible. People that before Him, I would
not be able to stand of be around or love. He gives me love for all of His
creation…and even though I MAY have a slight inappropriate personality at
times…He still turns my heart towards Him and reminds me that He loves ALL of
His children THE SAME. THE SAME. THE SAME. Hahaha…okay you get it.
So He is my number one.
#2:
I am thankful for all of my family.
Someone in my family recently passed away and
his funeral is tomorrow (Saturday…so today I guess).
He was VERY dear to everyone in my family and
everyone who knew him.
When people close to us pass away I think it
is always a reminder to just cherish those that God has given us.
I am not going to lie. I may be sick as
alllllllll hail of my family at times. And they can say things and do things
that drive me absolutely insane and make me think I am off my rocker.
But at the end of the day – I still love
them. They are always there for me.
And no matter how much they hound me about
needing a husband and starting a family so that they can finally have
grandchildren and great grandchildren…I still would hate to go one day without
them.
Yeah we have hurt each other a lot…but
they’re my family. God knew what He was doing when He put us all together…
I have no idea what He was doing…hahaha…but
He does. And that is all that matters.
I am so thankful for them.
Okay…I would probably write A LOT more on
both of these subjects…but I just got home and I have to be up for school in 5
hours…so I need some shut eye!
