Be Thankful

I wanted to share what I read this morning in my quiet time.
Always be joyful
Keep on praying
No matter what happens,
always be thankful
for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
What good timing this is since it is Thanksgiving week and also because I have just gone through a few days of feeling sorry for myself. A good reminder that there are always things to be thankful for no matter what your circumstances. I remember a few years back, Oprah suggested to everyone to keep a thankfulness journal. Everyday, you write down five things that you are thankful for. I think since it is Thanksgiving week that I will do that. Get my focus back on what is good and brings joy to my life.
One thing that I am thankful for is all of you who come and visit my blog and leave such encouraging comments. I appreciate you so much and hope that you have a wonderful week filled with blessings and thankful moments.
Love and hugs to you all!

I appreciate your diversity and I love your insights. They make me look at things a bit more and not just flit through life.
