It is a humbling and touching thing to see those with very little, express their gratitude for what they do have. So many of us are guilty of losing perspective and focusing on what we don't have. The truth is, we all have a multitude of reasons to be thankful.
Our After School Program made a thankful tree this week and filled it with things they are thankful for: school, family, apples, flowers, it's beautiful outside and much more.
What an awesome reminder to look at the blessings God has bestowed on us and be thankful!
"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Matthew 6:25-26
