I'm going to use today's post to be intentional about being thankful. I've been focusing too much on the bummer things lately. Even though things have been really hard; I know that God has been good.
"Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever." 1 Chronicles 16:34
- Hearing the sounds of my girls laughing instead of fighting.
- Chris arriving back to his base safely.
- A friend who thinks of me every day and texts me every morning to tell me so.
- Seeing God's goodness in my dad's last days.
- Dancing with the girl's and their friends in the kitchen.
- Eating tomatoes that I grew myself.
- The opportunity to breathe this week and not be going 100 miles per hour.
- Zoe telling me, "I yove you"
- Going to the movies on Tuesday morning as a whole family.
- Having an 11 year old who still loves to get and give hugs and kisses to her parents.
Ahhh...LOVE! And I SO need to follow your example! Thanks for the reminder that there are always good things all around us - we just need to stop long enough to notice.
