Gratitude challenge Day 10

Well, I almost made it all ten days without forgetting. Nothing like missing the last day. So here is the tenth and final challenge... a day late. 
Ten things about the Gospel of Jesus Christ that I am thankful for...
The knowledge I have a loving Heavenly Father.
The knowledge that I can have eternal salvation if I live righteously and keep the commandments.
The knowledge that I'll see my loved ones again that have passed on.
The knowledge that I can repent of my sins and be forgiven.
The knowledge that Jesus Christ understands everything I've ever gone through and that he atoned for me and my imperfections.
The knowledge that Heavenly Father still speaks to man in this day, through his prophets and other leaders as well as the Holy Ghost.
The knowledge that I can be sealed to Tom, my children and other family forever!
The knowledge that God's power is available to us on this earth through worthy men who hold the Priesthood.
The knowledge that I have the Holy Ghost with me as a guide and comfort whenever I need him, as long as I'm worthy.
The knowledge of why we have opposition and learning how to be a little better everyday, to serve others and to see the good that's in the world.

Gratitude challenge Day 9

Today's challenge is ten foods I am thankful for. This could be a hard one to narrow down. I guess if I'm talking about foods for survival and health it would be a different list than foods for pleasure and enjoyment. Here are just the top ten foods that come to mind, for either category...
Water (I know it's not a food, but I couldn't live without it and it's my favorite beverage), green beans, broccoli, watermelon, peaches, popcorn, pizza, rice (with black beans, beef, pon pon chicken, coconut curry chicken, etc), donuts, taco salad.
