What are you thankful for....for the year 2009?

Hi, Sublime. I am not only thankful for the year 2009, but I am ALWAYS thankful for all the past years. In our daily night prayers, I thank Him for being always there for everything. He was there to let that tragic incident to happen because He had His reasons. He had always been here for us during the tough times that my three children and I went through. He was always there during the most painful and the saddest times of our life. I know He will always be with us as long as we live. We do not and will never forget to always thank Him in our prayers. He has given me strength, safety, inner peace, serenity, hope and a new life. All these, I am always grateful to HIM.

I am thankful for life in general. I am thankful for a happy, healthy family and friends that love me. I am also thankful that I have everything I need in this current economy even if I may not have everything I want.

this year as every year i am so grateful for my wonderful children! they are the three most amazing people i have ever met in the history of the world. i am grateful for my new wonderful niece Emma. she is a joy to have. i am grateful that at the end of the year i still have a job that i love. i am grateful that the truth has been reveled about certain people. so grateful to this year and looking forward to more wonderful things to be grateful for next year

Hi, sublime03. I think that next year will be a better year. I am starting now on making next year a much better year for me. I know that it will be more promising than 2009 was. I thank God everyday for being alive. This goes for my family too. I thank God for protecting me in this bad storm that I had to encounter as this year came about. I am thankful that my family is safe and so and I. I am very thankful for any and all the blessings that God has granted for me. I will continue to be thankful even if my world is looking gray.

Well I don't think anything good about 2009 because it was recession and everyone was in troubles. Only thing good for me was taking admissions in MCA and getting few new friends. I don't think anything good happened with me in this year, trying to make it memorable by being employed again in 2009, though very few days left. Still trying to find good job, some partner but I know everything has time and I think my time will come soon. I want to share this too, I was unemployed for the whole year of 2009, I left my first job in Dec 2008, thought that I would get good job later. Other thing that I have never being loved by someone, it makes me feel little lonely these days. Don't know what will happen in future! Let's hope for the BEST!

Hi sublime03! I had many things to thank God about this year. This year is a very good year for me. Though there are tough times, I had been able to face life's challenges. I thank God for keeping me and my family safe and healthy, for all the blessings I have receive and for the life He had gave me. I hope next year will be a prosperous one too. I wish for all people to be happy and to live in peace. Happy mylotting and happy holidays!

I am thankful/grateful for yet another year of sobriety. The future is not for me to predict or expect things out of. I live each day for that day only & don't worry about the next day. HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I am thankful that I am still alive. We experienced worst Typhoons in our country and the worst of all worst of all, is Typhoon Ondoy which floods Metro Manila. I am thankful that I did not lost my loved ones even my friends and pets were safe. I am thankful that I still have my job, we still have source of money to buy foods and the things we needed. I thank God my family is there for me, my parents are healthy. I am thankful that even there is an economic crisis we are still surviving. I wish 2010 to be one of the lucky year that we anticipate that we should all stand up for the fall that happens to us in the year 2009.

the only thing i can thank that's i'm still alive.and with the willing to earn more money the next year so i can enjoy more also. this year not earned enough moeny to support dailylife and have no saving at all. but we've learned more about the online business and wish can live with it the next year .

Nice topic...It's a good way to thank the Lord during Christmas...I am thankful for this year because God answered my prayers not only to have a spiritual family but to be more involved with them and have joined bible studies and ministry..that I've experience the growth process in my spiritual life and I know God is already at work in my life and the lives of my family...My sister came to know Jesus more this year, I started to have my own clinic, I've a lot of lessons that I've learned...I've lost my cellphone, I've been paying debts, I've quit a job (AWOL), got stressed from work, betrayed by a friend and a lot more that I could no longer remember...but thank God I've been set free and the old has gone because the new has come (Jesus who lives in me). I believe that this year 2010, God has greater things in store for us...we just have to believe and speak words of faith! have a Joyful Christmas!

Well, this year 2009 will be recovering year of my health. For your information, i had been diagnosis for lymphoma cancer during May 2008 and remission on September 2008. I am glad that i return to God because i am lazy to attend church for years. Everyone, including my family, friend, relatives, unknown person, church friends pray so hard for me. Thank God for saving my life. I hope that i will be fine in following years. I went back to work after rest for nine months and wearing wig at first 2 months when go to work. I plan to go vacation at least once a year and now i'm saving some money first. In addition, i am happy to see my hair growing from bold to shoulder length. The hair is thin but at least the hair grows back. I pray that next year will be better year for me and of course everyone.

I am thankful this year that I have joined a new job for a better career and I am thankful for all the new things that I have bought to my house for a better and comfortable living. :P

2009 was a rough year for me, but like you I thank God for being with me every step of the way. I'm thankful for my family, friends, home and job. And I am especially thankful to be here for another Christmas and new year.

I am always grateful that I have two wonderful sons and that I still have my mum, who has just celebrated her 79th birthday. In particular, for 2009, I am grateful that the fall she had did not have more serious consequences and that the MRI scan I had 6months ago was clear... I am hoping that the results of checks I've had more recently will also come back ok. I dont expect the year to be more prosperous for me but, I'll be happy enough if we're all still here and able to be grateful at the end of 2010. Best wishes to you for a better year.

I am thankful for a lot of things. I got married in 2009, and I am thankful that I have met my husband. I love him very much and we are very happy together. I thankful that we had a great party and I thankful that I was able to celebrate the day with my family and my best friends. I am thankful that we got the chance to visit Latvia and Lithuania. We had a really great time and I will always remember the time we spent in those countries. I am thankful for the good things that happened this year, but I am also thankful for the bad things because I learned something from those situations. I am thankful that my family is healthy, and I am thankful that my husband got through the accident without any physical injuries. I am also thankful for my friends and for the interesting people that I have met this year.

I'm thankful that we are still alive and my family always with me. This year is very difficult for all of us because of the crisis and calamities that we been through. Despite everything we are still happy that we are not affected by the typhoons. I do hope that next year it is much better. I'm very thankful to God that He give us another year to celebrate Christmas and New Year.
