What I'm Thankful For...

My pastor's wife gave me an assignment yesterday to make a list of all that I am grateful for--and this just happens to coincide with Thanksgiving. So, I thought I'd just start it on here, since I wanted to post today anyway...

I'm grateful...

...for a God who loves me unconditionally...
...for a family (immediate and extended) who is so loving...
...for friends who have been with me through everything...
...for a university that is incredible...
...for my semester in Washington, D.C....
...for being able to work for Newt Gingrich...
...for my summers in Pennsylvania...
...for good health...
...for the countless opportunities the Lord has given me...
...for the United States of America...
...for President George W. Bush...
...for the beauty of Northern California...
...alright, and Southern...
...for my church in Glendora--SO amazing!...
...for my musical ability...
...for being able to play nearly every instrument I attempt...
...for an arm that functions almost normally now...
...for almond milk and soy ice cream...
...for my job and my boss/mentor...
...for the diverse terrain the Lord has created for us to enjoy...
...for the chance to sing for the Billy Graham Crusade...
...for the teachers I had growing up, who shaped my life...
...for the professors I've had, who have challenged me...

Well, that's a start anyway...I'll add to this progressively as I think of more things for which I am grateful. Have a wonderful holiday weekend!
