Hey, you live in the DFW, right? Maybe you could come visit my church. ^_^
@Jenny_Wren - Which one?
I really like this idea. I may have to give it a go myself!
@NightCometh - I sent you a message with the details.
Anyway, great post. It’s a good idea to regularly count all the things you’re thankful for.

I borrowed this good idea. =) I hope you had a nice time having your hair done!
At the beginning of the year I did something similar by ending every day by writing how/where I saw God in my day. It sounds weird, but I’m convinced that God is always talking to us but we simply fail to hear… Unfortunately I only did my journal for a week, but you’ve inspired me to try again!
Today I am thankful for another day that I can work on my writing and continue to record the things God has taught me in life and commands me to share. Today is awesome so far because I am still not broke and still not dead and my children are living a happy life. I’m looking forward to working more on my novel, the best thing I have ever written. Today’s challenges are the pains in my chest, the difficulty with breathing, and the inability to get housework done. The person I am helping is my son who is hanging out with friends at the mall. The quote of the day comes from the Little Prince by St. Exupery, “What is essential is invisible to the eye.”
This is such a great idea! I had stopped blogging for a long time because it all seemed so negative. I need something like this. Thank you!
Today I’m thankful for: Hot water and heatToday is awesome so far because: My dad brought me a piece of his German chocolate cake to celebrate the end of his Radiation treatments.I’m looking forward to: Church tomorrowToday’s challenges: Sadness, crying, lethargy
Person, place, or thing of comfort today: My Aunt Lois, who I called tonight.
Person, place, or thing I can help today: Hopefully my daughter, by trying to be here for her.
One helpful word, idea, phrase, or quote to inspire me today: Someone told me I was one of the most positive people she knew. I know I’m not, but it made me feel like I could be!
Hope you are doing well, dear…..I have a lot to catch up on. xxoo
Love it.
