Exodus 20:17 - "You shall not covet.. anything that belongs to your neighbor." or what belongs to anyone else, for that matter. You shall be content with what you have.
Things I am thankful for:
- My husband who loves me and works hard to support our family
- My two beautiful daughters
- Our parents
- Our friends who circle around us, constantly encouraging and praying
- Our home
- Our church
- Our jobs
- God, who loves me and sent His Son to save me.
There are days (everyday) when I wish that life was different.. that I could go back to being the stay-at-home-mom.. that we could afford to take a vacation.. that our 4 year-old could go to pre-school.. or that we could afford to homeschool.. that our 7-year old could be in an extra-curricular activity with her friends.
But all these things don't change what I'm thankful for, and those things are enough. I shall not covet. I shall be satisfied.
