Gratitude Challenge~~Day 3

Today and everyday for that matter I am thankful for my amazing husband!  He is the most handsome, hardworking, caring, loving, and most importantly....Loves God and serving Him. 

Recently it has been a blessing to see him come out of his shell and start serving in huge ways.  He has really hit the ground running.  He is starting up an AWANA program at our church!  He not only works full-time, he is also a full time student at Liberty University Online.  He only has a few class left there, then it's onto seminary.

This Saturday will be our 6th anniversary.

Our fearless Co-Crew leader is hosting this great challenge.  Go on over and jump on board with the challenge!

2011 Gratitude Challenge~~Day 2

DAY 2

I have been writing my list of things that I'm thankful for, but the one I had planned for today will be tomorrow.  Today I'm thankful for ALL the men and women who give up their time to help others.  I'm talking about Volunteer Firefighters and EMS personnel.  I'm thankful for the ones who are paid, but volunteers have an extra special spot in my life.

Last night a family lost their home in a fire.  When that siren goes off I always say a prayer for my friends who are running out of their homes to run into danger.  Thank you guys!

2011 Gratitude Challenge~~Day 1

Brenda over at My Homeschool Garden is hosting a Gratitude Challenge.  I am excited to take the time and reflect on the things in my life God has given me.  Sadly I let "life" cloud my view of God's goodness many times.

So for today I am so thankful that God sent His only Son to die for me!  Did you see that He gave His Son so that I might have eternal life.  But the best part...He did it for you as well.  It's a free gift...all you have to do is take it!  Thank you Lord for all you have done and continue to do in my life!

Ephesians 2:8

"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast."
