Me Thinks

Incredibly blessed. That is how I feel.

Things have been sticking out to me lately--things I rarely think about--like the blessing of hands.  What would I do without my hands?  And my eyes--have you noticed the brilliant colored leaves and the snow-capped mountains?  I am grateful for my ears that hear the sound of grandchildren saying "hello" over Facetime or singing me a song, the sound of the ward choir rehearsing, or Christmas music on Pandora.  I am thankful for legs and feet and toes, a back that is not painful, a mind, a neck, shoulders and arms.  I am thankful to live in America.  I am thankful for family and thoughtful friends and most importantly, I am thankful for the knowledge I have that

I have a loving Father in Heaven who hears my prayers.  

I have the gift of the Holy Ghost.  

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  

I have a Savior, even Jesus Christ, who is my redeemer and His life and sacrifice deeply affected mine.  I feel grateful today. 

Omni 1:26  For there is nothing which is good save it comes from the Lord.
