Thankful Hearts



My husband and I have overflowing hearts of thankfulness to our Lord who has blessed us beyond measure and has given us far more than we could ever ask or think!! There are so many things that I am thankful for but I will only put a few down for starters.

-Wonderful, Godly husband who loves me deeply! My husband is the best man in the whole world and has exceeded my wildest dreams!! A note of praise for him- the other day I was tired and had been on my feet all day so I decided to take a nap, the whole time my hubby was cleaning the dining room and living room! So when I got up, the floor was swept shiny, the trash taken out and the misc things picked up and taken care of! I am so blessed for such a kind, caring, thoughtful man! But more importantly, how Godly he is and for taking stands for what is right!

-Sisters and brother- I am so thankful for my sisters and brother! We have had so much fun together and have made so many fond memories!! Thanks guys! Love you!

-Parents- I am blessed with Parents who raised me in a Christian home! Thanks for all the fun times and the lasting memories! Love you both!

-Family- I am thankful for the sisters and brother and "parents" that I have gained through my husband's family. You all have been wonderful! Thanks for all the fun times and for your love to me as a sister and daughter!

-Church- Words cannot express how truly thankful I am for the solid, conservative, Holiness Church that the Lord has blessed me with! How wonderful it is to hear the truth preached consistently week after week! I am blessed to have fellowship with other like minded believers!

Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles and extended family- The Lord has richly blessed me with wonderful Grandparents that I love very much! And a large extended family who are absolutely wonderful!

-Our home- We are so blessed to have a home of our own... a little haven from the world!

-Food, shelter, clothing, warmth, a working vehicle- These are just a few of the many things that are all a part of daily life but so often get over looked in the business and grind of things!

-There are so many other things....the ability to read, write and see... our dog Tanker...the beautiful state in which we live... the opportunity to witness to those around us... I am truly blessed!!

-Jesus Christ- I am so thankful that He rescued me from the miry clay and has set my feet on the solid rock to stay and has given me a song of His praise. Hallelujah! What a wonderful peace there is in my soul to know that I am forgiven through the blood that was shed on Calvary and to know that I can live in victory! Praise be to the Lord most High!

There are so many more things that I am thankful for... far too many to name here! The Lord has been so good to us and has truly fulfilled His promises in giving us above and beyond what we could ask or think! May He receive all the glory due His Holy Name!!
