This past week I’ve been reminded of the stuff that makes up my life, for which I am immensely grateful. I confess here, openly and with a bit of shame, that I am mostly, on a day-to-day basis ungrateful. And, while it is nowhere near November, my heart declares it Thanksgiving Day, because I need to recall these blessings.
Heavenly Father, I am embarrassed to realize that some of my regular old every day kind of blessings have gone somewhat unnoticed. But, my heart longs to be thankful – and I am not reticent to all of the ways you reminded me last week; for…
my family,
my girls,
and my boys,
belly laughing,
sand digging,
waves crashing,
happy memories
good times,
and last, but certainly not least, the love of this sweet man.
For all of these things, and so, so much more, I give thanks. amen.
