Thanksgiving Day is only two days from now and I have a lot to be thankful for. First, I am thankful for my salvation that the Lord freely gave to me when I asked for it. I am thankful for my wife who helps me in all that I do. I am thankful that I have a job that is pretty much recession proof (unfortunately it comes at the expense of another person's health). I am thankful to be living a such a wonderful house. I am thankful of living in a place that I can experience the fall with its brightest reds, yellows, and oranges. I am thankful for my friends that I can call anytime of the day to discuss my latest and greatest ideas. I am thankful for the hard times that have come in my life. Pat Green said it best. "Life would be awfully boring if the good times were all that we had".
