Giving Thanks Is More Than A Holiday

As we make preparations for a Thanksgiving feast next week, may we be mindful of the many blessings God has given us.  There is so much to be grateful for; things great and small.  Before the merriment of festivities and football games, the table settings and turkey with all the trimmings, may we pause for a moment with humble gratitude.  Having an attitude of gratitude helps us realize all that we have and gives us a  happy, healthy, hopeful, and positive outlook on life.  

Allow me to take a moment to give thanks to my Father in Heaven, who has blessed me with a loving family, great friends, good health, and new opportunities.  I am happy.  Life is good, actually, it is exceptional!  I am grateful to Him for all that I have, and I thank you, my friends, for your love, encouragement, and prayers.  My heart is full,  and I echo the words of the man in the video below: "I don't know what else to be but grateful."
