Giving Thanks...

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
-I Thessalonians 5:16-18
I'm declaring today a Day of Thanks for myself. My February Thanksgiving! And why is that? I've somehow gotten extremely negative lately. I want, want, want, need, need, need, and I forget how much I have, have, have! Today, I'm re-focusing and thanking God for Joseph, my family, his family, our church family, our home, our Lucy, our jobs, our vehicles, for having enough to pay our bills, for our many, many material comforts, and much more. The list could go on for miles. I'm especially thanking God for his faithfulness in spite of my lack of faith. I guess I'm writing this as my accountability! So Mom, you better check up on me! (just kidding :) God is so good, faithful, and merciful and for that I am most thankful ( and humbled) of all.

My little angel, Mandy. You are not a negative person, but I understand your feelings and pray God will also bless you with an up=graded self esteem! He is so very good to us. He loves us no matter how we see ourselves! You are truly an inspiration to me.
