Happy Thanksgiving! One thing I pray daily for is that Ryan, the kids, and I have a thankful heart.
Having a thankful heart in all circumstances that come our way! The Bible verse 1 Thessalonians 5:18 states, "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." I recite this verse often during my day for I know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him (Romans 8:28). One example of many this week... Our week has been filled with things breaking- Sunday our vacuum blew up, Monday our dishwasher broke, and Tuesday a shelf. A repair man came to the house yesterday to look at the dishwasher (still looking for a part), but the God thing happened when he called me that evening asking for the exact wording on a sign above our door- "Until God opens the next door, Praise him in the hallway." I don't know what is going on in his life, but I do know God needed him to see it! I shared briefly that it isn't easy waiting in a hallway and he agreed. Regardless of what isn't going "right" in your eyes always pray for a thankful heart.... Remember God's plan is always better than our own. Happy Thanksgiving and spend some time in prayer of thanksgiving today❤️

Having a thankful heart is one of the biggest blessings we can ever have. No matter how hard life may be, we should always be thankful for the life that we have. Things may not always go our way, but God will always be there to make us feel loved. Hardships are a part of life, so there is no way for us to avoid them altogether. But, even though we experience tough times, we must always be grateful that we are able to overcome them every single time.
