Thankful Day One
Wow!! The first day of November already and I have so many
things I wanted to have done by now. I
awake grateful for the crisp weather with a list a mile long of things to be
accomplished. Run out the door already
having made two return trips upstairs for forgotten items and remembering a
third and can’t go back again or I’ll be late.
I get in the car, check my route via google, finding it clear, and head
out.
In the midst of it all there is so much to be thankful
for. You see, I arose from a warm bed
having been embraced by a snuggly husband.
I had a large selection of clothing to choose from, hot water for a
shower and a warm, safe, comfortable home from which I departed into a
reliable, comfortable car to make my way to work. I am so very fortunate; so very blessed, and
these were but a few of the blessings in my life. I continued my trek to work in a spirit of
blessing for others and arrived at my job wondering how I might bless others
throughout my day.
What are you grateful for today?
In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in
Christ Jesus concerning you. (1 Thessalonians 5:18)
