In everything give thanks

So I meant to start this post on Monday, but alas it is now Thursday night and I am just getting to it. My plan is to write each day in November a post of something I am grateful for as we enter the holiday season. I will do four things tonight and hopefully keep up with posting on every day this month and they are by no means in a particular order!

1. I am thankful that I am saved by grace and there is nothing I can do to earn or lose God's love and acceptance of me! I have been redeemed!

2. I am thankful for my house and how God's timing is always perfect! It was a major concern of my bringing a baby into an apt that had mold on the ceilings, was drafty, no AC, and was known to have lead paint. But God provided for us the perfect house at the perfect time for the perfect price!

3. I am thankful for my health and hope that I can start paying better attention to my eating habits and exrs routine. Working in the setting I do, I see ppl everyday with major health concerns/problems that limit their function and participation in daily tasks. I am so grateful to have my health and I hope that I can continue to have good health in the years to come.

4. I am thankful for my husband. He is my soul mate and a perfect match for me. He picks up where I lack and steps into any situation I need him. He may not always be willing to do what I ask when I ask but he does it none the less and I am so grateful for his love, support, passion, and guidance. He is my rock and provides me with stability and peace. He is an amazing Father with such a great love and dedication to his family. We are so blessed!

Wow, I feel better already. I like focusing on the positive rather than the negative all the time. So as November is upon us, I challenge you...what are you thankful for?

and I will leave with a preview of tomorrow's post....
