Giving Meals While Giving Thanks

Every year my family and I make a trip to Headland, Alabama.  It's definintly the most wonderful time of the year.  This year all of our gang and another family went to feed the homeless on Thanksgiving for lunch.  The impact we made on those peoples lives was truly fantastic.  It is a priceless moment to see the joy on their faces when you hand them a warm meal.  We were given the oppurtunity to sing for them and present a devotion.  This week GOd has shown me just how much I have to be grateful for.  There is nothing GOd has not brought me through and no mountain he connot move.  Psalm 100 says:
     " Enter his gates with thanksgiving
      and his courts with praise;
      give thanks to him and praise his name.
      For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
      his faithfulness continues through all generations."
   Everytime I see the many blessings God has given me I am truly humbled and see his greatness and glory in everything I do.  When you discover the greatness of God the whole world seems to be a little brighter and the world seems a little better.  God has shown me his love for me through the blessings he has given me.  He loved me enough to send HIS only son to die for me.  It never ceases to amaze me that if I was the only one to die for he would have died for only me.  I thank my Heavenly Father for everything he has done for me and the blessings hes provided in my life.
