THANKFUL

Grateful:feeling or showing gratitude; "a grateful heart", "a thankful smile"!

This was just one of the many definitions listed for THANKFUL on Webster. This is the one that I thought best described my feelings right now. My heart is full. There has been a lot of change in our families lives over the past 3 months. Some of which hasn't been easy to go through. But I have such large feelings of emotions. I have a very grateful heart! We have received so much help to get where we are at right now. Some of that help has come through money, some support, emails, phone calls, prayers, and the wonderful gift of the HOLY GHOST. As I think of what I have: my family, friends, A loving Heavenly Father, A Loving Savior, the gospel of Jesus Christ, temples and the wonderful opportunity to do sacred ordinances, the scriptures, the gift of the Holy Ghost. There is so many many more things, this list can go on and on.
The thing that comes to my mind more than anything else is that no matter how short we are on money, or how in limbo we our without our own home, or the fact that the Casey's job isn't secure or stable. These things truly aren't the most important things in life that and there is always something to be thankful for. WE HAVE the most important things in our lives that bring abundant happiness and for that I am GRATEFUL!
