For the month of November, I am going to be focusing on thankfulness. Each day I will list something that I am thankful for; blessings from God. Not the “Sunday School” answers of “my family, my home, my job…” but the daily grind blessings that sometimes go unnoticed. I will be posting these on this blog, the ABCJLM website, and Facebook to let the world know that God is into the details of our lives and we have much to be thankful for.
Day #1:
My children have a Daddy who values time with them so much that he changed his work hours to start at 6:00 am so that he can be home more in the evenings with them. He also works out before they are out of bed to maximize the time together. We are blessed.
Day #2: When I am cold, I have the option to put on more clothing or turn up the furnace. We are blessed.
Will you join me and focus on the blessings of the year? Start today listing your blessings for Day #1 and Day #2. Leave a comment to share your “Thanks”. Then come back every day and join our “Rain of Blessings.” I pray this month will be a testimony of God’s goodness to His children.

What a great idea. My husband also gets up really early to get his work day done earlier so he has more time with the family in the evenings. What a blessing that is for sure!

This is an awesome idea. especially leading up to thanksgiving, but I think sometimes it just reminds us of our blessings that we tend to over look in the daily grind.
