40 Days of Thankfulness

It is exactly 40 days until Thanksgiving.  I have been thinking about this for a few weeks and want to take each day and elaborate of one thing that I am especially thankful for.  I want this time to empress upon me even the smallest things that I probably take for granted everyday. These will not be listed in any order of importance but just what I come across or in contact with everyday.
Day 1 – I am thankful for my awesome pastor, Pastor Thrasher.  I thoroughly enjoy his services and love to listen to him . . . . he is such a man of God.  But along with that, I am also thankful for the freedom we enjoy to worship how we want.  I realize I don’t know any differently, but have tried to think about what it would be like if we did not have that freedom.  This is one of those things that I think America does take for granted, not on purpose or not even realizing it, but it happens.

I have to come back and edit this earlier post after today's activities.  Thank you Lord for this beautiful part of the world that I get to live in.  Richard and I have been going on Sunday afternoon trails rides in the Ranger down on the leased property.  Here are a few pictures I took today with my iPhone.
