November 9th Thankful For: I'll be honest. Today I just was feeling kinda down and all day I was trying to get my mind and heart to be thankful, but it was just hard. I kept thinking about different things I feel sad about or that are difficult in life right now. But as I was getting ready for bed, I decided that today I was really thankful for a heated house. The previous few days we were having a hard time adjusting our heat to make it work for our lifestyles. So there would be mornings it was reeeaaallly cold in the house. But now it's cozy and warm and just right and so I feel thankful for this luxury that is undeserved and not my right.
This got me thinking. If I had to go through a few days without heat to really appreciate and be thankful for my now warm house, maybe God is doing something similar in other areas of my life that I'm having a hard time with. Maybe he's showing me that I am not entitled to these things and in the end, I will come out much more thankful and aware of his goodness and blessing.
I hope that's the outcome.
