For my Seven Quick Takes
Here are SEVEN blessings I am thankful for!
1. The way the sun shines and fills the room with light in the morning.
2. The things that I take for granted, food on the table, heat, hot/cold clean water.
3. An awesome family to love. (Include Big Jake here…)
4. My awesome friends! AND that they love me and put up with my sometimes feeble attempts at humor, high energy and my chattiness. I do love y’all!
5. Church of the Redeemer A place that, when I’m comfortable, I receive a challenge. A place where, if I’m afflicted, I receive comfort.
6. Unexpected opportunities.
7. Work to do.
What seven things are you thankful for? Sometimes, if I want something really bad that I cannot have, and feel my heart becoming resentful. If I stop myself, for a minute and start counting my blessings, the resentment melts away. I WANT to be a person who shows gratitude and appreciation. I don’t want to be a resentful person. EVER!!!

Thank you so much Angela!!! Knowing this assures me that I’m doing what I was meant to do! I’m grateful to have the opportunity to write my heart and have it be a blessing to others! Thank you for encouraging my labor of love!
I am very blessed! I am thankful for the following:
1. God’s grace and mercy. I couldn’t make it in this world without him.
2. His peace and Comfort.
3. I am thankful for my job. Teaching jobs are hard to come by and I am thankful to have a wonderful job teaching a wonderful group of 2nd grade lovelies!
4. My church and my church family.
5. My health.
6. Friends and family that love and support me.
7. A car to drive; protection. Food to eat.
Thanks for this post. It’s good to actually STOP. THINK. And count your blessings.
