Thankful

This morning my boss said something at prayer that stuck with me.

What if tomorrow we woke up with only what we had said thanks for the day before?

It really got me thinking. There is so much that I am thankful for, but I take a lot of it for granted and forget to thank the Lord for all He has blessed me with.
I am thankful for a Lord and Savior who died so that I might be saved, I am thankful for a mom and dad who taught me about Jesus and brought me up in a Christ centered home. I am thankful that I have three of the most amazing siblings a girl could ask for. I am so blessed to have some of the best friends surrounding me, friends who are always there and who help me strive to be a better person. I am so thankful to be a part of such a wonderful church body with a hunger to reach the "forgotten people" in NWA, US, Kenya, India, Middle East, Central Asia, East Asia, Nicaragua, & Mexico. I am thankful for the things that I take for granted each day...food, shelter, clothes, heater/air conditioning, job, car, money for gas.
I'm sure I could go on and on there is so much to be thankful for. What are you thankful for today?
