Do you ever take a step back and just appreciate all you have?  I know I've been guilty of always wanting more.  Never satisfied with what God has already blessed me with.  This past Saturday my family and I went to the lake with some of our friends, the Middleton's.  We had a blast.  The weather couldn't have been better, the boat ran great and the fellowship was awesome.  Lunch at Wendy's was pretty good also. 

At one point during the day I was just laying in the water looking into the sky.  I don't know why but I just thanked God for allowing me to have this moment.  There is something special about hanging out with family and friends.  I feel so fortunate to be blessed with such an incredible family, health, friends and a church that is doing great.  Thank you God for everything you've blessed my life with.

But most importantly, I thank you Father for your son Jesus Christ.  Life without Jesus would be meaningless.  I thank you that myself and entire family all know you except for my youngest son Jacob.  He is so close.  Please continue to move in his tender heart.

I guess my thought for the day is thank you!
