Gratitude

Today's lessons were about Gratitude at church and since we are fast approaching Thanksgiving, I wanted to make a small gratitude list for today:

-The Gospel (including the scriptures, living prophets and apostles, etc.)
-Prayer (it is my direct line to my Father in Heaven and often my saving grace)
-My Family (it was said in conference once that families bring our greatest joys and our greatest sorrows-I'm grateful for both.)
-My Friends (the family I created to keep me sane from the one that makes me insane) There are very specific people (you should know who you are) that make me a better person and love me despite the facts they know
-The Willis' (they fit the friend category, but they need their own mention because their Christlike love is unmatched in anyone I have ever known)
-Trials (despite how painful the refiner's fire may be, I know that someday-no matter how far away-I will be a beautiful, finished product)
