Tamra's List of Thankfulness 2013
I am thankful for...
- God's perfect timing and provision as well as guidance, forgiveness and love for me - I am continually amazed at how God loves me even when I fail Him so often.
- My godly husband who leads our family by example and encourages each of us to walk better with our Lord; for the provision he gives to the family; for his unfailing love; for his friendship; for his positive attitude; for his perseverance
- My seven beautiful children and how they daily brighten my day with the little notes they write to me or the million times they say (or scream) "I love you, Mommy!"; for the help they give in keeping our house clean; for their energy and zest for life; for the seven different little personalities; for all of their hugs and kisses (and messes); for their patience with me; for their unconditional love
- My parents and siblings (and their spouses and children) - I live far from my family but I am so thankful for the memories we created while growing up and for the time I get to spend with them even though it may be every other year :(
- My students - they make my job FUN and they are an encouragement and blessing to me
- My friends (both near and far) - for their listening ears, advice given, and prayers offered on my behalf
- My family's health
- My church
- My country and my freedoms!
I am extremely thankful for all God has given me and how He has richly blessed me. May I never stop to give Him thanks just on Thanksgiving but each day throughout the year. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
