Thankful!

Seeing as tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I wanted to make a short list of some of the things I am thankful for. I could go on and on, but there are only 24 hours in a day.


Jesus
Family
My health
Ryan
The Sun
The Beach
Having a bed to sleep in
A comfortable chair
Peanut butter
A beautiful song

Being able to live in SUNNY San Diego
Butterflies
The income God has blessed me with
A cool breeze
A drink of cool water (or Diet Mountain Dew)
A gentle rain and being able to hear it, and play in it
The plentiful vegetarian foods that God has grown all over the world for His people
The education that God allowed me to attain (and hopefully I am done :))

When I was first going through the list, I have a lot of 'My' things, ie. MY job, MY income, MY health, and then I realized, everything is on loan to me from God. And then I remembered how thankful I am for being able to realize that :).
