I have been posting daily on Facebook what I'm thankful for that day, it should be that way all the time and not just the month of November. Maybe I'll make that change. It's a much brighter facebook with everyone being thankful and not negative to say the least.
Being thankful isn't always an easy state to be in, sometimes it's just downright HARD to find that thankfulness.....
For a long period of my life, I didn't see it, I couldn't see it. But it wasn't because it wasn't there, it was because I expected it to be in some other form than what it was.
As I was driving down a dirt road one evening at dusk, the sun was setting behind a "hill" and it hit me. God made that and he allowed me to see the beauty in that day.
A few afternoons later I was driving by a pasture and I again took note of the beauty that had been hidden.
It took me a few days but it came to me, if you are looking for it, there is beauty all around.
So now each morning I'm thankful that the sun has come up and that I'm fortunate enough to sit on my porch with a hot cup of coffee and maybe a conversation with the husband. I'm thankful that I have money to put gas in my car and drive to work. Oh and I'm thankful for that job that God placed me in.....
SO you see, it's not that hard to find something to be thankful for, if your heart is truly thankful!
