November is here and that means the busy holiday season is just round the corner. We often get caught up in the rat race and don't take time to truly thank God. I started a few years ago taking time each day to think of what I am thankful for. Sadly I often forget to do this the rest of the year, but try to do it daily for November. We should be thankful every day for all of the blessing bestowed on us, not just during prayer on Thanksgiving Day.
What are you thankful for today? I will be honest the first few days are very easy for me because they include my Savior Jesus Christ, my family, friends, spouse, child, and all of the everyday people in my life. Towards the end of the month it gets a little harder.
So lets start this together! I will do a post each day with something I am thankful for, and you can comment what you are thankful for.
I started this yesterday in which I was thankful for my Savior Jesus Christ who never turns his back on me regardless of what I do. He is full of mercy, grace, and love that we can't find anywhere else. I have walked away from him, and came back knowing he was there waiting for me. He never turns from me, even when I upset him.
Today I am thankful for the rainy day. The rain waters the plants, foods, and animals; however, it also typically leads to an evening of cuddles and book reading for us. I used to love rainy days when I was in school because I would always have soup and grilled cheese to eat that day. Even then the rain was a sign to slow down and enjoy things. If it is pretty we are typically outside, running errands, or on the go. However, when it rains everyone talks about going home, cuddling up with a blanket and a book. For me I love to hear the rain, especially thunderstorms, and cuddle up with Emma watch a video or read a book and enjoy my evening with her.
What are you thankful for today?
