What Are You Thankful for?

woody · 11-21-10, 10:02 PM

With the Thanksgiving Holiday approaching, I thought it appropriate to talk about what we are all thankful for.

I'll start off by saying. I'm thankful for my wife of 21 years. She is my best friend and mother of my two children. She is also a big supporter of my love for fishing. She doesn't fish, but does encourages me to pursue my favorite pastime. This is one of the many reasons I am thankful. What are yours?

mark..........there is so much i am thankful for i don't truly know where to begin my friend. thankful for my wife is right up at the top too. i am VERY thankful for my friends here. lisa and i have had a pretty bad year and you guys have given ME a lot of encouragement through it. thankful i still have a job (for now). thankful for the GOOD LORDS BLESSINGS each and every day. i could go on and on. but there ain't enough space for it.
if we really look around us...........there is so much to be thankful for really. but it seems we look at the things we DON'T have more than what we DO have.
thank you mark for showing me what i TRULY need to be looking for brother. once again, YOU have made a difference in my life. GOD BLESS YOU MARK! i say this wiht all my heart and very humbly too.

I really don't know where to start. I'm thankful for all the blessing the Lord bestows upon me from day to day. My wife and kids, friends, the fact that I still can get up each and every morning and go about my buisiness, and so many other things. I'm also thankful for the tribulation that comes my way too as that keeps us honest, and keeps us looking to Him for guidence.

I am very thankful for my Britney and Lake, they both are my very best friends and I don't know what I would do without them. I am thankful to have a job, even if it's one that I am not happy with it's still a job and I know how lucky Britney and I are to both still be employed. I am thankful for our good health and the health of my family. Man I could keep going all night but I will cut it short and stop there.

Same here as everyone else. Flea and I celebrated our 12 year anniversary. We have 3 great little boys and some friends to boot. I am also thankful to have a job right now.

So from what you guys have said so far, it seems as though we are most thankful for the relationships that we have. Whether it be our spouse, our children, our parents, our grandparents, or our friends which we have met along the way, it seems as if we are made complete by the significance of our relationship to others.

John, Thank-You my Friend!

God, country, and family. Thankful to God for giving his son that we may have salvation. Thankful to live in a country that we can worship Him as we choose, and be able to enjoy all of the outdoor activities (hunting and fishing). Thankful for the men and women who are fighting to keep our freedoms. And thankful to have such a loving family.
