I'd like to take time today to list the things that I am thankful for. This is an activity more of us ought to do every day of the year, and in that spirit perhaps I'll try to do that more myself. Here goes.

1. I'm thankful that God has given His son, Jesus Christ, as an offering for my sins, and that I am a believer in Christ by God's grace.
2. I'm thankful for the Bible, God's word, which contains the truth about who God is, how He made the world and everything in it, and His plan of redemption for a fallen world.
3. I'm thankful for my wife Carol, who is a wonderful helpmate, a loving mother to my six kids, and a good friend for life.
4. I'm thankful for my children - Stephen, Colin, Bryan, Melissa, Beth Anne, and Amanda. They are a treasure and have taught me much about love and grace.
5. I'm thankful for my job. I work with good people.
6. I'm thankful for my family - my Dad, my mother and father in law, my brothers, my brothers-in-law, and all the kids, friends, and relations.

There's a lot more... I'll add more later.
