thanksgiving

thanksgiving is on thursday (as it is every year) and i figured i'd take a little bit of time to think about what i'm thankful for. it seems slightly cliche i suppose, but i know it's something i don't think about very often, so here goes...

i'm thankful for my God and Savior Jesus Christ and for His sovereign mercy and grace, without which i would be nowhere; for my parents, i love them so much and am so thankful for the influence they've been on my life and for the way they raised me; for my brother and sister, you guys are amazing, this may sound bad, but i'm so glad that you guys went away to college because it made me appreciate you so much more, i love hanging out with you guys, you're awesome. i'm so thankful that God chose to put me at the university of oklahoma. when i think about all the people that i've met as a result of being here, i know that my coming here was no accident. i am so thankful for God's sovereignty. it gives me such a peace in my life.
