Giving Thanks in Dothan

Hey there Y'all!!
I hope y'all had a fantastic Thanksgiving!  There is so much to be thankful for!  I have been thinking about how many blessings Heavenly Father has rained down upon me, my family, and my mission.  I am so grateful to know that we have a LOVING Heavenly Father who knows us individually.  He has an intricate plan for all of us.  He puts people in our lives that knows will touch us, and change us for the better.  I am so grateful to have such a wonderful companion who puts up with me :)  I would not be able to make it through this last 6 weeks with out her!!!  I sure am going miss her and all my Dothan buddies! 
I am so grateful for my loving family.  I am blessed with such wonderful people to claim as kin! :)  I am grateful for all their prayers and support.  I am so grateful for the way that Heavenly Father has cared for and blessed my sweet family.  The restored gospel of Jesus Christ truly does bless us as families and as individuals.  
I am most grateful for the knowledge I have of our loving savior, Jesus Christ.  It is through him and his mercy and grace that we can be forgiven or our sins, strengthened in our weaknesses, and supported in our trials.  The opportunity that we have to access the power of the Atonement each day is such a blessing that I have taken for granted for so long.  I am so grateful that each day we have the opportunity to commune with our Father in Heaven, through Jesus Christ, to identify our weaknesses and what we can do to be better servants in his hands. I know for sure that I would be a hopeless sole if it were not possible for us to repent and access the power of the atonement each day.  
Jesus Christ has seen me through the good times and supported, and carried me though the difficult times.  
I know He lives.  I know He loves us.  I know He is the one that saves.  
We love him, because he first loved us.
