Many things to be thankful for. Even the flowers that bloom during winter show off the beauty bestowed on them by Our Creator. Take a moment and consider all the things in your life that you should be thanking God for. Even our heart beating within us is allowed because the Creator is right this very moment making sure it continues to beat.  We take so many things for granted.  Now, on the Jewish calendar, is Purim. A festive time to thank God for His great providence in rescuing the Jewish people from annihilation during the time of Esther. Because of God's redemption, we have the Torah today. We can continue to learn Torah and teach others to follow the One True Creator!
