Just what are you thankful for? And what are you grateful for? During these days of the holiday season, you may find yourself contemplating what you value and what your blessings are. I’m thankful for my life even though it’s not perfect. I’m glad God gives me breath each day and watches over me. I’m glad He gets me through the hard times in life and for the faith to jeep going. I know that no matter what, He gives true quality of life regardless of any pain or suffering. I treasure every day He had given me.

You are here for a reason
Ever wonder why you’re here and if your life has any rhyme or reason? Do you believe in such a thing as destiny and fate? Well, I can tell you your life does have meaning- the meaning your Creator has given when He made you.
You see, God loves you so He made you. He wants you to know Him so He gave you His Word. You don’t have to wander aimlessly because His Word is a lamp to light your path. He leads you like a Shepherd. Follow His lead and you can’t go wrong.
If you want to understand your life, ask the One Who gave you your life. Your life has meaning and purpose. You’re not an accident or a mistake. You are precious in His sight. And you are loved.

Boundaries
Sanity and safety come from respecting boundaries. Danger comes from a lack of discipline and
Its subsequent rebellion. Total freedom to do what we want can cause total ruin. While
this fact may be understood in the natural sense, it may not be spiritually obvious. We understand our parents guidance and boundary setting, but not realize God’s authority to lead us.
Our parents are supposed to teach us right from wrong, which comes from God’s word. Why do we resist God? It’s in our nature. All of us have violated God’s boundaries. And illicit choices lead to condemnation and separation from God, Who only established those boundaries for our protection and happiness.
God used the cross to bridge that divide. Our choice to believe this gospel and desire to please God opens the door to heaven and the righteousness necessary to dwell there becomes ours in a wonderful, gracious exchange for our sin. At last we are able to know and trust God’s boundaries and obey them. Our nature has changed like a dirty robe discarded for a clean robe.
Do you chafe under God’s law or do you love God so much that it’s a joy to obey Him? Have you climbed the fence into forbidden territory? If you have strayed from God’s fold, do you want to return to Him? The choice is yours.

I love earning money with my computer. There are many programs out there to join, one in particular is Swagbucks. You get paid to search, complete surveys, watch videos, play games and shop. The points you earn can be redeemed for gift cards. If you use this program everyday it adds up. And using the mobile app makes it easier to earn.
I redeem my points for Amazon gift cards. I have been able to purchase items for less using my gift cards, like the swimsuit I bought. And one time I redeemed my points for a charity donation.
I highly recommend this program. Join today!

True love is from God. How is your love life? How do you treat your fellow man? Are you selfish?
Is your love dysfunctional? Do you struggle in your relationships?
You may be aware of your weakness when it comes to loving another person. You may struggle with control issues or trust issues. Can you trust God? Do you have a relationship with God? It begins there. If you have surrendered to God's Word and trusted in salvation through Jesus ,His Son, you have within you the capacity to love others. You already naturally love yourself; that is a given. But now you must love others the same way you love yourself. Impossible without God's help.
