Thanksgiving!!!

Just wanted to share a few things here today, things I'm thankful for.



1. My kids Jonathan, Kirsten, Sarah and Lizzie! They are the reason I get out of bed every day!



2. My church family here in Lockney. I love them very much. They have seen me through some very difficult times.



3. The United States of America! Whether you're Republican or Democrat, conservative or liberal, we live in the single greatest democracy in the world.



4. Our service men and women that, past or present, are fighting for our freedoms. I especially want to be thankful for the parents and family members of those service men and women.



5. Friends, both new and old, that encourage me daily.



6. My mom. She continues to inspire me!

7. My sister Shellie.

8. My home, car, food, daily stuff we usually don't put a lot of thought in being thankful for.

9. Small town living. Don't know how much longer I can make a living here, but thankful for my time here.

10. Jesus Christ! I left him for last cause I wanted the space to tell you why. You see just at the right time, he came into my life and rescued me. I was lost, but now I'm found. Cleansed, redeemed, justified, sanctified! Romans 5:6 "You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly." Think about that for minute. Christ died for me? Preston Belt? With all of my problems, faults, iniquities and sins, he died for me? I spent most of my life thinking he died for the Godly folks. The folks who were perfect in every way. But right here in the bible it says He died for me!!! And you!!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
