Happy Thanksgiving!

I came across this video from Mormon Messages and thought it was fitting to share for Thanksgiving.





I know that I have so much to be thankful for. Sometimes, with all else that we have going on, we forget to count our blessings (at least, I do). But, I am grateful. I'm thankful for a loving Father in Heaven. I'm thankful for the experiences in my life that have helped me grow close to Him and to my Savior, Jesus Christ. I'm thankful for the gift of Jesus Christ and for His marvelous atonement. I'm thankful for the power of prayer. I'm thankful for the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ and for the peace it brings to my life. I'm thankful for a wonderful wife, who is the answer to so many past prayers. I'm thankful for an amazing son, who is the joy of our life. I'm thankful for loving parents, parents-in-law, siblings, siblings-in-law, and other family, who do so much for me and who make me happy. I'm thankful for grandparents and others, who have gone before, worked hard, and sacrificed so that I can have what I have. I'm thankful for good friends. I'm thankful for a job that pays the bills. I'm thankful for a good education. I'm thankful for this beautiful world in which we live and for all God's creations. I'm thankful that my list could go on and on....

What are you thankful for?
