Be Thankful - Create Hope

Thanksgiving is coming up in just over a week. The time of year we take the time to slow down and examine what we are thankful for in our lives. As we approach this Thanksgiving, I have really been trying to live a lifestyle that is not about me. Things are changing in my life. Good things are happening. It has been a long journey for me the past few years. I have gone through my trials and hardships... most of my own doing. Things are looking up though now. 

As we get closer to Thanksgiving, we all should really take the time to slow down and analyze life. Are you where you want to be? Have you accomplished what you thought you would this year? Maybe you have, but maybe you haven't. It is a great time of year to be thankful for what has happened, or hasn't happened. 

As Thanksgiving comes and goes, look outside of yourself and be a blessing to someone. It might be the only thing they can be thankful for this year. People are hurt, in need, and desperate for a glimpse of hope. We can be that hope to them! 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Rejoice!
