10 Days of Thankfulness: Day 3

In chapel yesterday, Pator Aaron Bart let us explore and remember all the things God has done in our lives. I had some time to reflect on my year of good health for the entire family, for never giving up on me, for strength to face each new day with its new challenges, and for support groups to challenge and encourage me to stay on the right path. He challenged us to be thankful for things beyond the material things. It was a really great challenge. Around this time of year the things that usually fill my thankfullness list are things that I have given, material things I can hold such as friends, Scott, good food, a warm house, the clothes that I wear, etc... The list goes on and on. It is a good reminder to think about some of the things that I way too frequently take for granted. So day three of thankfullness is for God always chasing me down and bringing me back to the reality that He is God and I am not and I only have anything to be thankful for becuase He has given it to me.
