Design Crafters

This morning
while thinking about how we should take some time to think about the blessings
in our lives, I think first of all of my Creator and how blessed and thankful I
am for so many things even
during the hardest (most hectic) time of year regarding my professional life.

I am so
thankful for my supportive family, especially during this time of year when
they don’t see much of me. I’m thankful for my health, friends and those I
don’t even know who have made the freedoms we experience so possible - many of
whom have even sacrificed their own lives or are suvirors of those who have
made it possible for us to enjoy so many freedoms here. May those of you who
have lost loved ones fighting for those freedoms be especially blessed.

There is no
other place I would rather be than right here in the grand ole USA. Yes, we have had many
problems, tragedies, and disasters, but still, I am so very thankful for the
democracy and freedoms we experience as a nation. These experiences should only
make us stronger. The outpouring of love and support that was exhibited during
these times shows that while there is a lot of dissention and pain, we have
pulled together as a community to support one another. That is how it should
be!

For those of
you who may have lost your possessions, jobs or even worse, loved ones as a
result of our recent natural disasters, my heart goes out to you. May you in
someway experience supernatural blessings in you life this season.

In an effort
to encourage an attitude of thankfulness and gratitude, I would like to share a
poem with you that I found which I thinks says it all much better than I ever
could:

I’m
Drinking From My Saucer
