Let’s remember that we’re here because of Him. Everything we have is His, all of our joys and sorrows, our gifts and losses, our possessions, etc. Let’s not take anything for granted anymore. Let’s give thanks for even the smallest things we usually forget to give thanks for. The fact that you’re able to read this today is a blessing in itself. You can read! So many people would give anything to be able to learn how to read. Think about this.

I thank God for TODAY.     How about you??          Will you thank your Savior today? 

Be blessed. ❤
