#tbt & so thankful

Sometimes I feel like I need to pinch myself to wonder if my life is really my life.  I mean, yes I absolutely have my bad days or my days when nothing is making sense or working but then I have the days where I think, do I really deserve all this?  No, I don’t.  I know that.  Every good gift comes from God.

James 1:17 says “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

Two short months ago we got married.  It seems like it was so much longer ago than that.  But nope, just two months ago!  I am so blessed to have a Godly husband who is always trying to do better.  And I am not easy, I realize that.  I have my days where he just can’t win with me and to be honest, it is probably my fault.  But he is such a caring, compassionate man that he loves me through it.

Today I am thankful for freedom.  I am thankful for all of the men and women in our military who have fought to preserve that freedom for me.  Every 9/11 I can’t help but remember sitting in chemistry class, I can easily relive the entire day’s events out in my head as I am sure most of you can. It was such a time of uncertainty and fear. I still feel like that sometimes with everything going on in the Middle East and the violence all over the world.  But just like Psalm 27:1 (and may others) say: The LORD is my light and my salvation– whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life– of whom shall I be afraid?

Random as this is but I am thankful for handwritten notes and letters.  Yes, email and texts are quick but there is nothing quite like an actual letter.
