Thankful

I missed the T word yesterday and I missed doing my thankful Monday so to make up for that, I will use my T word for being thankful.  How's that for convenience?  Here is what I am thankful for on this Easter morning.

Tomb-when you think of a tomb, you usually think of death.  But Jesus rose from that tomb which is now empty.  He is in Heaven preparing a place for us.  Until we get there, we can have an awesome personal relationship with Him here on this earth anytime we choose to.  He gives all of us a choice.  Life is full of choices but this is the biggest one we can make.  My choice is to follow Him.  So, for that I am thankful for that empty tomb.

Twix-does anyone else love Twix bars?  Caramel and cookie and chocolate=yum!

Teenagers-I have one and I love her so very much!

Tigers-I think tigers are one of the most beautiful and intriguing creatures on this earth. 

Tornadoes-Okay, so I am not sure if I am thankful for tornadoes.  No, now that I think about it, I am not thankful for the devastation they cause but I do think they are really awesome and fascinating to watch.  Really amazing to see how they form.  Did anyone see the one that tore through the airport terminal in St Louis?  Wow!  I like to see them away from homes and people though.

Have a Happy Easter!!!

  1. Although I am thankful for the tomb and my teenager, I am not as fascinated by tornadoes as some. ;) Yes, they're interesting to watch from far away, and learn about.I saw the destruction (on TV) at Lambert airport, as well as the devastation in a smaller airport in southern IL. Unfortunately, tornadoes are one of my biggest fears and the storms really disrupt life during the spring around here. So thankful that more weren't hurt, and I pray that we all stay safe this week as more severe weather moves through.

  2. Teenagers, tigers, tornadoes...three quite destructive forces you've shared with us for the letter T. I might just need a Twix now to get past the violent images the other three conjure up. Thanks for sharing, and it's a pleasure to meet you via the A-Z Challenge!
