Thanksgiving it is...

Howdy agin' ya'll,
How is ever'body, huh? Well us'ns is doing just peachy. Yesterday we enjoyed a downright good dinner and then spent the afternoon visiting and playing games with some good folks. I got the socks beat off'n me, but other than that I had a good time. I got so many things to be thankful for this year and I am glad that I really AM thankful!!!!!!!!
The beginning of this year was not a good start but it got real gooder in September. The call that I had been wanting finally came!! From then on it has just gotten better and better. I can relate to my family again and the peace and harmony that we have is wonderful. I am glad that when some things don't just go smoothly that I can now pray and know that the Creator of the Universe will actually hear me and take care of the situation. It is a sad state of affairs when you need to be able to pray and know that you can't because your heart is not right with God. Today I am so thankful that I am saved and God has enabled me to live without sin and will do so in the future if I rely on His grace and power. The Bible plainly states that we must live without sin and that if we have sin in our life when we die then we will not go to heaven!! So much for the once saved always saved doctrine right? Also I am thankful for the fact that God has made His salvation such that the sinful nature can be removed and His Spirit can indwell us and help us to live sinfree. Afterall sin is a WILLFULL transgression of God's law. If you don't willfully disobey what He commands then how can you sin otherwise?
Anyway, I am thankful for all the blessings that God has showered me with. What are you thankful for???
Ya'll be good,
Poppi
