Don’t forget to count your blessings; not in a boastful or bragging manner, but thank God for the gifts He has given you. I thank God for a healthy body and mind. I thank God for my loving family. I thank God for my education. I thank God for opening many different doors to opportunities in my life. There is so much to thank God for everyday, and sometimes we forget to stop and reflect to see all that God is doing in our lives. Give thanks in all you do; even for the seemingly small things. Take your focus off of what you wish was going on in your life and place it on the things that God has done or is doing in your life.

“Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.”
1 Thessalonians 5:18 NLT

“I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done. I will be filled with joy because of you. I will sing praises to your name, O Most High.”
Psalms 9:1-2 NLT
