You guessed it! It is #ThankfulThursday and the task for today is to take account for all you have to be thankful for people. Of course there aren't enough hours in a day, but think about as much as you can. Last night as I sat in the parking lot waiting for someone, I saw a homeless person walking. Looking at him humbled me in so many ways. My transportation for instance, shelter, food, clothes, cell phone, and the list went on bursting with gratitude in those few minutes of me watching him. Strangely, I couldn't get in contact with him because as soon as I turned my head he was gone. Funny, because when I saw him it was like he came out of nowhere, but that is besides the point. The point is the stuff we complain about is usually trivial compared to the endless blessings God gives us daily.
Nothing is stopping us from being homeless, except The Grace of God. Let's not take this life for granted. Being thankful shows God we are appreciative and that we acknowledge God is The One blessing us and not ourselves or employers. God wakes us all up because of His Love for us and not our alarm clocks. Gently does He lay us down at night and wakes us in the morning. Giving us fresh fruit and flowers every year because of His Love. So be thankful! Be thankful that you are His! Be thankful that you are in covenant with Him through Jesus Blood. Best way to be thankful about life is to LIVE it joyfully in The Will of our King. Thank Him for His Will and walk in it!
