I thank God for many things. But mostly for loving me in spite of my faults, for always being there, and for carrying me through this life.
I also thank him so dearly for my husband and my sisters and all of those who he has blessed me with, to have in my life. To me, each, is a gift from God.
There are so many other things I thank God for, but mostly, I thank him for His love, and merciful heart.
How about you, what do you thank God for?

I thank God for every day of my life and for the people in it, all of which I consider to be blessings. I thank God for the things I have and for the things I don't have. I do wonder sometimes what became of Adam and Eve for screwing things up.

I thank God for His mercy and undying love. For loving me in spite of myself. For he is a God of a second chance. I'm thankful for every day that I wake up on this side of the dirt. For a healthy baby boy and the fact that we have a roof over our heads. I thank God for always providing for every one of my needs. For filling my needs before I even know to ask for things. Most of all, I thank Him for His sacrifice. That His son died so that I may live.

I believe that they asked for forgiveness and they were forgiven for their mistake.
I am thankful to the Almighty that I have the neccesities for living,air,water,food and shelter,the people in my life... there is so much more and most of all for guiding me to the true light.

And I thank God that I am able to love all my brothers and sisters, even if they don't think, feel or believe as I do. ;)
I do love you Cap :)

Allheart and Nikosmom - Amen, could not have said it better.
Aside from the gift / sacrifice of Jesus Christ, I thank Him for my wife, children, family, job.
I thank Him for this site. :)
I thank Him for good music, good food, infants, dogs, fast cars, sports, national parks, coffee, anybody that makes me laugh, for hugs, for the shared tears when someone is having a hard time, for people who listen, for the people who challenge and question you and your beliefs, for His words in the Bible,. for everything. :D

I am thankful for my two wonderful children, no matter what trials they may put me through. I thank God for my mom, brothers and sister and the rest of my family and that for the most part we are all in good health. I am also thankful for all of my wonderful friends. I am thankful for the fact that I am able to provide for myself and my children, that we have a roof over our heads and food on the table. I am thankful for the fact that I can hear the birds singing in the trees, see the sun shining in the sky, feel the drizzle of the rain on my face, for I am happy to be alive!! I am thankful that we live in a country where I don't have to worry about being bombed while walking to my car or even down to my neighbor's house. I am thankful that I pay taxes, as that means that I have a job!! I am thankful to be in a new and loving relationship and that I have been given another chance at love (other than for my kids and other family members). I am thankful for so many things and I am sure that God knows.
Thank you Allheart for putting this post up. We need more posts like these!!

All so beautiful words of thanksgiving. I started the post, because with all else that goes on, just thought it would be so nice and a place to share and rejoice a bit.
Bless you all.

I thank God for teaching me to forgive and accept others as they are. I thank God for filling me with much love and peace and hope that I am able to pass that on to others. He has always kept me safe even when I was in unsafe places. He surrounds me with loving people. I am blessed with children and grandchildren and a wonderful man. When I feel sad, he sends someone out of nowhere that says "I love you" and hugs me extra tight. I know it is God.
