Thankful Thursday

It has been a long time since I did a thankful Thursday post. 

Today I am thinking about all the things in my life to be thankful for. 

There are so many things I take for granted:
a loving husband
healthy kids
grandchildren
good health
 the best sister in the world
great friends

Then there are things which are considered luxuries in other countries:
a house
clean water
enough food to eat
safety
access to medical help
2 cars
more than one change of clothes
a job

But what I am thankful for most of all is Jesus. 

Nothing much else really matters in the grand scheme of things.
The rest is just icing on the cake.


What are you thankful for today?

  14. Such a nice post: Thankful Thursday. Yes, you are so right with everything you mentioned. Especially what we have in this country, as opposed to others not having half of what we have... And your best is being grateful for the Good Lord! Me too! Without Him, we are nothing.
    Best regards,
    Gloria
