I'm really thankful for......
 
I asked the guys at the prison last night what they are really thankful for and one guy told me "I thankful to be clothed and in my right mind." I liked that answer. I really thankful for the Love and Mercy of God, my family, my job, my church, my friends, AFF........and tons of other things!!!!!!


What are you really thankful for? And what does your life declare that you are thankful for?

For my God and Savior who has been very merciful to me, despite my wicked ways.

For a new love and respect for my Dad and for myself.

For my health, strength, job, car, where I am in life right now and how I got here, where I am going.

I am grateful for all of my ex-girlfriends, for the outcomes of my mistakes and bad decisions, for experiencing love, for losing love, for longing for love.


I am grateful for a positive work environment, for the respect of those who respect me professionally and personally, and for those who don't respect me too-- God uses them to teach me. I am grateful for God's life lessons and I am even more grateful when I pass them!

There is so much that I am grateful for!

PTL! My brother and SIL asked about him last Sun. I am glad he is better again.

My niece Sarah is also doing good and the doctors are phasing out the meds.

I'm really thankful that this paper will be finished by Thanksgiving! At the current rate...barely...

I'm also very thankful for my precious children. I'm thankful for the noise and chaos in my home because they live here. I'm thankful that we have everything we need, and so much more. I'm thankful for a good church and a good pastor. I'm thankful for good friends. I'm thankful that God never gave up on me.

Whataburger will make those if you ask! They cost almost nothing too.... Two slices of toast and 3 slices of bacon...the veggies are free.

Please drive through some WB and ask the drive thru order taker to ring one of these up. Bonus points if you get a new cashier. :thumbsup Although, going inside might be more exciting as you watch them try to figure it out.

I'm ornery tonight. :D

I thankful for the grace of God that reached out to me when I was His enemy in my mind and in my actions. I'm thankful for the truths which God has revealed to me. I'm thankful for the His Spirit that dwells in me.

I am thankful for:

God healing my dad so that I could be conceived
Having a rich heritage and wonderful family
My two wonderful children and their spouses
My common sense, peace and contentment in my life
A great job, debt-free car and perfect home
All the friends that have touched my life
and for chocolate!

Ferd, there are alot of us here who are thankful that little Jack is still with us. God did a wonderful thing. We're grateful that He chose to answer our prayer for Jack the way that He did. May He continue to bless your family.

I hope that our group here on AFF is still going strong 20 years from now so we can get to see what God has in mind for the lives of these 2 boys whose lives He spared :) I'm sure He will be using them in some capacity. Just as I pray He uses ALL of our children.

I'm just thankful. Imagine God loving ME.
Everything else is just extra. And I am truly grateful for my family and friends.

I am thankful for my husband who takes such good care of me. I definitely don't deserve it...but he loves me. :heeheehee

I am thankful for my children, that they have grown up safe & strong.

I am thankful for family. We all live so close by each other, and are able to get together often.

I am thankful for close friends, who love & support me.

And I am thankful for my AFF family, who are always there when I need you. :heart

Margie, this AFF family has lived thru some horrible days with one another.

I am glad you found us when you did and that we were here for you guys when Walt went down.

And I am thankful you all were here to pray with and for us this year when we almost lost Jack.

I laid in the floor and couldnt even pray and a person I met on these forums called me and prayed for me as I just cried.

God saved my little boy that night and taught me something about the faith of his people.
