Giving Thanks

Today I thought I would share some quotes with you from my vast collection. As Thanksgiving is next week I thought that these quotes would be so appropriate. I am so thankful for all He has done for me and all that He will do. Thanksgiving is an extra special day for me as last year on this day I was given my biopsy results following major surgery and everything was found to be normal despite the tests indicating otherwise. I am praising Him and thanking Him each and every day!

I will be going to Georgia on Monday to spend Thanksgiving with my sister and her family so will be away for 9 days. I will try to check my blog and visit while I am away.
