Every year we all celebrate Thanksgiving…a time when we can sit back, enjoy good company, good food, and be thankful for everything and everyone we have in our lives.
This year my husband and I seem to be in a tight spot with several issues going on in our lives and I am struggling with everything even more now that my hormones and emotions are raging from being pregnant. Regardless of all the things that have happened in the last few years and the struggles we currently face, I am still thankful for everything I have been blessed with.
I have a husband who loves me with every bone in his body and will work himself to exhaustion to make sure that there’s food on our table, that the bills are paid, and that our little world continues to go ‘round.
Despite the loss of my step-mother a year-and-half ago, and then my dad recently moving to California, I am still thankful I continue to be surrounded by family and those who love me.
I am 19 weeks pregnant with our first little one, and even though we have no health insurance to cover the bills we continue to move forward knowing that whatever we need will be provided by Him.
Even though we have a very small living space, I am thankful that I have a roof over my head, a warm bed to sleep in, and a place to call home.
I am truly thankful for everything in my life, everything that has happened in the past, despite whether it is good or not. I am thankful that I can continue to have faith that everything will turn out for the better, even though some days I struggle. I could go on and on about the things I am thankful for, but my point is that no matter how hard your struggles may be, or what adversities are handed to you- you should be thankful that you are human, that you have the ability to overcome, the ability to have faith, and the ability to live. Do not forget what you are thankful for, and do not forget that He will never give you more than you can handle.
Well said!
