Thankfulness

Good Morning my friends!! Oh, what a happy day.  The Lord has blessed us with a brand new beautiful morning. Joy.  Jubilation. Breathe it in, savor its loveliness.  Enjoy its newness, be excited for what the day holds. Be thankful.
Thankfulness... yes, it is so important.  We all are blessed so much.  Each minute we have, it is a blessing.  How we need to be thankful. 
I am realizing it... during such a time as this I can let myself be negative, I can be bitter or indifferent but I CHOOSE joy! I CHOOSE to be positive.  It is so easy to not... it is so easy to let ourselves fall off onto the path of bitterness.  It is a conscious decision.  The more we choose joy, the more we choose gladness, the more we see God's blessings ALL around us. Join with me, look at the good, look for the positive, smile... SMILE! Really, it is GOOD for you! :D
~Speaking of being thankful...
I have been wanting a few raised beds for our garden and yesterday my men built my first one. It was such a sweet gesture, I had to go and take a few pictures. :)
You can't be too careful, you know. :)

Enjoy your day.  Choose Joy!
My Cup Runneth Over...

Wonderful post

I was just thinking about writing a post very similar to this! I have realized that when I get all down about how much I have to do or think that I will never get it all done, it is just my bad attitude coming through. My chore load never changes, it is only my way of looking at it that does. I can either choose to be joyful and do all things for Christ, or I can be bitter and angry, therefore a bad example to all those around me. I am choosing to be joyful! Thank you for the reminder, as always.
Blessings my friend,
Rashel
