What are you thankful for?

[BirdManMike]

Pretty much everything. Life is grand.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

 

[AlaskaHunter]

I am thankful for a daily life filled with retrievers.

I am blessed with an extended bird hunting season, wintering in NW Montana.

Every day I start out with a devotional from my friend over at COFA. I'M so Bless to have Mike as a Brother in the Lord I hope I'm not overstepping rules here. A Thanksgiving Blessing This is the day the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24, NLT) In every season of our life, we’re tempted to focus on our present burdens and miss the blessings. We love it when we receive the blessing—the promotion, the new house, the baby—but with the blessing comes new burdens—responsibilities, payments, cares. Rather than enjoy where we are on the way to where we’re going, we get so caught up in the challenges that we miss the beauty of this moment. You could be in one of the best seasons of your life, but you don’t realize it because you’re focused on the struggles, on what you don’t like, on what’s taking so long. At some point you have to put your foot down and say, “This is the day the Lord has made, and I will not allow my burdens to steal my enjoyment of my blessings.” Change your perspective. Shift your focus from the burden to the blessing, from what’s wrong to what’s right, from what you don’t have to what you have. Make the most of every day. A Prayer for Today “Father, thank You for this day and for this season of my life. Thank You for every blessing You’ve given me, and thank You for the burden and responsibilities that have come with them. Help me to make the most of every day by focusing on Your goodness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Too many things in life to list but chief among them will always be the family; the wife, kids, 91 y/old mom, and now the four little gbabies.

Happy turkey day Hunt Talkers!

 

[Addicting]

There is too much to list, God, Family, and good health are always at top.

Finding out how good Brown Sugar Bourbon and warm apple cider is ranks pretty high while I have to tolerate my MIL today.

Mornings like today. Happy Thanksgiving

Plenty to be thankful for here. A healthy baby boy, my wife received two pay raises this year, I found some reliable work as a welder so we can work towards planting a church, elk meat in the freezer, first semester of teaching undergrad theology under my belt, and plenty more.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
— Ephesians 1:3

 

[Gerald Martin]

I am thankful for God’s provision through all my life. In spite of heartaches, stresses, and in-the-moment complications that could grind a man down if I focused on them.

As I grow older, I think more of Thanksgiving as a time of remembrance of faithfulness in times past and expectation of God’s faithfulness in the future.

In the present, I am thankful for a patient wife. My thriving children and a beautiful little granddaughter. A warm home, a good job and a 14lb turkey starting to cook on the grill.

I am also thankful for this Hunttalk community that has provided me so much entertainment and information, as well as friendships over the past 12 years.

So thankful for God and what he does for us! My amazing family, and living in a state that has plenty of big game species to hunt and one of the most important ones being able to chase big muley bucks in January with a bow. So thankful for God's creation and how beautiful and marvelous it is. So much a person could say and pry still not cover it all. We are blessed!

My wife and kids and the opportunity to hunt some of the most beautiful country in the USA earlier this year.

 

[Pucky Freak]

Thankful for family, friends, a great job, and public land hunting opportunity!

 

[Ben Lamb]

I'm thankful that the airing of grievances is coming up soon.

And for hunt talk. Youse guys are reprobates, but you're damned effective reprobates.

Also, I'm thankful that others are hosting thanksgiving, and that I don't have to help.

 

[noharleyyet]

I’m thankful for a happy healthy family, a vocation I enjoy that provides for us, and great friends that I can count on, some of whom I’ve met here…you know who you are.

Immeasurably blessed.

Cuddling that rooster. Priceless

She asked if she could switch it out with her teddy bear at night and we said no. Had to draw the line somewhere

A hot cup of coffee, a wonderful supportive wife, Chris Stapleton in the background. A turkey to smoke, and drinks to sip while watching football with family. You, for being willing to share your thankfulness, makes me smile. God Bless

Oh chit, I forgot Chris Stapleton.

 

[longbow51]

Everything. For all God's blessings.

The fall, and ducks, and deer, and elk, and antelope, and grouse, and trout are what it’s all about. Apologies to the Hokey Pokey

Happy Thanksgiving to All!
