In My Life, I Am Most Grateful For...


by Ellen Atwood

In my life, I am most grateful for my parents. They have always been there for me. My mom and dad have always provided me with everything I need. Clothes, food, and most importantly, opening me up to believing in God. Without my parents I would not be as close to God as I am right now. They did a really great job bringing me to church each Sunday. My life would be incomplete without God, and I have my parents to thank for completing it.

Ellen - I loved your essay (and thanks for the kind words). I do believe that remaining open to God is very important. In fact, when I think about faith, it is usually less about belief than it is about openness. Being open to possibilities, open to God, and open to the truth, wherever that takes you. For me, it has led to God. Thanks again for writing this. Love, Dad
