Thankful Thursday

I need to find a place of gratitude tonight for My spirit is in a place of sorrow.
After watching a history of the 1960's world events I was left sorrowful over the ways of this world. How sad the effects of evil hearts and civic run a muck with high hopes and good intentions gone bad. The generations lost all affiliation with each other and their was anarchy.

I am thankful that our country our nation made it through that turbulent time in our history. We survived the great depression as well. Those who choose to learn did so and we again prospered. I am thankful that perhaps with the advent of media and all of it's negative influence that history can be put in front of us to view with the horror what might help us think again before we act.

Living in a nice community I am grateful. I am watching several families however vacating the house and home. For rent signs going up and foreclosures are rampant. In my city it is fast becoming epidemic! I am thankful that we were able by wisdom and a good understanding use the knowledge that spared up having such a large mortgage. I am tankful that we make careful use of our income when we were in a time of bounty by paying down our first two homes. We mainly owe now on the adoptions and whats left of the house pay down. Those choices saved us when we lost that lucrative employment.

I am thankful for the children's lives here in America. They have HOPE here. I am tankful for hope and having witnessed Russia and it's people without it. Just how important it is. I am thankful that my family is thriving. I am humbled to live in this country and to be called American. I am grateful that their might be a way to get better mobility for my knee.

I have a home a bed a family Esteem that I once only thought was possible for others.
I am humbled that I have a life full of promise and fruit a plenty.
I have a marriage that stands the test of battle and time. I stand thankful for I am full aware why.
It is in this... I have placed my love upon Him. Psalm 91. I owe a great debt of love to that woman who years long ago placed that Bible at my teller window. I am so very thankful that the love I have placed upon God has been my constant for He has loved me. My cup overflows!
