Such Things to be Thankful For
God has an interesting way of taking away things in our lives that we thought we'd never lose. Yet in the place of those (sometimes painful) departures, he inserts fresh perspectives and opportunities for greater things. I am watching opportunities in my life disappear left and right only to be replaced by grander and more eternal opportunities. And at the opportune moment... ok ok enough with the cheeseball opportune-ness. You get the point. So today as our nation stops to be thankful, I too can say with confidence that I am thankful. Despite what emotions I might be feeling in regards to changes in my life, I am learning to see Gods hand in it all. Because His hand is there. It always has been, and always will be. Now there is something to be thankful for.
