Close to this time of gifts, parties, holiday meals, and a general season of excess, it is a good time to translate the idea of gratitude.

My needs of this life have been met. Today I am reminded and truly thankful for what I normally take for granted. I'm thankful to only want.

In many ways, this life is about service. You can relate that action biblically. It can be to your family, your community, your job. . .

I want the world to know how I feel. I love my children. I love being a father.
