Here We Go

This is all new to me, but I am very excited. I've noticed that I have recently been feeling sorry for myself and playing my miniature violin. I've forgotten that God loves me and He has a good life planned for me (Jeremiah 29:11). So in order to combat this, and to stop getting on my own nerves, I will focus on my MANY blessings and what I have to be grateful for. God has been so good to me, and I need to remember that. So, here on my first day I will list five things that I am always grateful for:

  • God sending His only Son to die so that I may live (John 3:16)
  • Waking up this morning
  • A God-loving, kind-hearted, loving husband who is a great father
  • A supportive family, who is also a lot of fun!
  • Enough food to eat (sometimes too much!), and a roof over our heads
  • This season in my life when I am staying at home with my daughter
Each day, OK, let me correct that right now, whenever I blog, I will include a list of things that I am grateful for. I am going to enjoy "counting my blessings".

Hey Nina! I like that you going to list all that you are thankful for. We sometimes forget (at least I do) all the great things God has done for us. I was in church today and the message was about being fired up and our passion for God. I thought about how I sometimes lose my passion/focus with all the things going on in my life. But I was soon reminded that you can never forget what God has done and to keep the fire lit.
