~ I could seriously go on and on. Try making your OWN list... I don't think there's ever an end to it.... this makes me realize I need to spend more time on my knees at night just THANKING my Heavenly Father for ALL I have been given. I find when I think about all I have been blessed with, I am humbled. My heart is full and I testify that when we actually sit down and think about or THANK Him for ALL that we have... we will want to DO better. We will want to BE better and try harder.
"Because I have been given much, I too must give."
I hope we can be a little more selfless, a little more kind, a little more giving.
"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my bretheren, ye have done it unto me."
