Thankful

For our women's small group, we are taking turns telling our "story" for the next few weeks. The template, if you will, for this is supposed to be 3 people, 3 places, 3 events that have shaped you or had an impact on your life.

I just sat down to briefly write down some notes so I'm not completely winging it and I came to a few conclusions.

• I have never had a huge, tragic event in my life.
• I have had some incredible people in my life that have impacted who I am and have definitely given me the weird sense of humor that I have developed over the years.
• God truly works all things together for my good. Every mess up, every heartache.
• My life has been so easy compared to most people's it seems. I feel spoiled.
• Family is a common theme on every important event in my life.
  
• My husband is one incredible man. He puts up with all my crap and attitude. :)
• Our God is faithful....
  
• I am so thankful.

I encourage you to make a list of what you are thankful for...maybe even take the time to think about 3 people, places, and events that the Lord has revealed His character through. It really puts the dirty house, busy schedule, and broken vacuum cleaner in perspective.

Love.
