Giving Thanks to God....

Happy thanksgiving to everyone; I thank God for the good he has done for me and even the bad. (I learned in church the other Sunday, that in all life's circumstances, when we focus on honoring God, it doesn't matter whether or not the moments are peaceful or times of suffering....as long as it is a place in life where we honor Jesus, that's the main focus of life.

In observing this thanksgiving holiday, I have been focusing on being grateful during this phase in life, that even though things are not perfect like I want them to be, I will be in this moment, do so, move forward and work on honoring Him, during the process. 

Last night, I reflected on being thankful for living and had a hard time thinking about being grateful for my life and living, yet after waking this morning, I thought about how thankful I am for my family, my friends, and I am thankful for their health and the time that has been given to me to be able to cherish life's moments with them...and for that reason...life is worth living.
