Giving Thanks
/ Autumn McKenzie Jackson
There is an occasion for gratitude every day. I have some big huge goals I am working to accomplish before years end. The number of challenges I have been inundated with over that past few months is almost comical. I am grateful for the right perspective to get through them. I choose not to dwell on them, but I started writing some of them down so I can give thanks for making it through them. Then I lost my journal. The challenges are present to make the victories even sweeter.
I am grateful to see a new day.
I am grateful for the perspective that it is going to be a good day no matter what.
I am grateful for you.
I am grateful for this moment with you. You could be many places right now and you chose here.
I could go on.
May today and everyday we look for ways to be grateful.
If you have never made a declaration of faith and you want to make that commitment, here is how.
There are levels to everything. I can live a religious life that is sterile and devoid of divine power and muscle through life exhausted and overwhelmed or I can recognize the fullness of what Christ Jesus died to give me.
I tend not to be awestruck, but my older brother, Darrell, is an exception. He is my superhero.
