Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I am very excited for Thanksgiving coming up this Thursday!  Not only because you get to eat yourself sick (.. well.. that's a large margin of cause) and hang out with your awesome family all day, but you have an opportunity to give thanks to Heavenly Father for all the many blessings he has bestowed upon us.  One of the greatest blessings He has given us is his only begotten Son, to suffer and die for us that we might live again.  I am so very thankful for the Atonement and the opportunity it provides me to repent and live with my Heavenly Father again.  D&C 19:16 says, "For behold I God have suffered these things for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent".
May we take just a moment this Thanksgiving to thank our Heavenly Father for the blessings that He has given us.  If you ever feel like you don't have anything, just know that no matter what choices you make, or what circumstances you are in, His love is available to each of His children - young or old, sick or healthy, wealthy or poor.
