Journal of Gratitude......

I'll be adding each day. What has God blessed you with today?

A time for reflection....

Thanksgiving.....a time when we usually remind ourselves what we are thankful for. Family, friends, health, love. I too am thankful for all of these things and more. But thanksgiving shouldn't be just once a year. It should be a daily habit......throughout the day we should praise and be thankful. For the big and the small. For the good and not so good. And while we are at it....lean on Him for all of what you need....spiritual, physical and emotional. Because He really IS all we need.
