I Am Grateful

In a couple of days, we will celebrate Thanksgiving. Before I get bogged down with cooking, eating, and enjoying my family, I want to reflect on what I am most thankful for this year.

There is a Gospel song by Hezekiah Walker that expresses exactly how I feel at this time. And it says...

I am grateful for the things that You have done
Yes, I'm grateful for the victories we've won
I could go on, and on, and on
About Your works
Because I'm grateful, so grateful
Just to praise you Lord

Flowing from my heart
Are the issues of my heart...
It's gratefulness

This year I am most thankful, and grateful for the lives of my dad, and brother. Dec. 30, they were both shot at point blank range, while being good Samaritans. A really bad day, turned into one of those, "Look at God," kind of year. And for that, I am truly grateful.
