Okay, I've never done this before, but I kind of like the idea. My family is in the middle of a trial, but at the same time, God has really blessed us.  Things I am thankful for. 1. I have six wonderful,healthy children. 2. I have three teenage daughters who talk to me and hang out with me. We actually have a relationship, and I know that is not always how it works. I know that is a gift. 3. God has allowed us to be part of a wonderful church. Great sunday school program, Amazing worship team, very annointed. Great preaching from Pastors who live what they preach! 4. God has really blessed us financially. In the last year things have really turned around. 5. We have exoerienced Gods' healing power in one of our sons lives from a long serious illness. There are many more, but the blessings definitely outweigh the trials and I am trying hard to focus on that!!!  God does not take us thru trials to sit back and watch us suffer. He knows what needs to be worked out of our hearts and that is His only goal. Making us more like Him. And I have learned I have such a long way to go, but I am moving in the right direction. God bless!
