Thankful

I read a post today on a great website called Real Life and thought I would share it here!! On a side note Amy and I both have our devotional books! YAY!! So now it's just a matter of making time for our devotion and sharing it here! Pray for us!! We both lead pretty busy lives!!

Anyways, back to Real Life! Sarah wrote a great post about America's financial crisis and it being part of God's plan. I really hit home to remember that God has his hand in all this. It also was very humbling to remember all I need in this world is Him! To think of all the worldly possession I have, that I could easily do with out if finances were an issue! Think about it, do I really need my cell phone, my computer, internet(shiver) cable tv, coach purses, gas guzzling SUV!! And the sad thing is I could go on and on!! I am grateful for the job I have, even if at times it wears on me, and for being able to have all the nice material things I own.

As I head into the holiday season, a season of Thanksgiving, I am reminded to be thankful for what I have and to give a little to others that may not be as fortunate, in this time of financial crsis!
