Used To Do It Too

The past week, this song has been going through my head and I really like it a lot. I have really been challenged this month to just be thankful for what I have and how much of a challenge it is to be thankful. I used to complain all the time and did not want to be thankful always. I think that

I need to challenge others.

What are you thankful for?

There are many things that I am so thankful for... I was asked to give a 30 second spiel on what I am thankful for on Sunday. As I sat down to think about it, I began to realize that I have so many things to be thankful for...which is why I asked what are you thankful for? I am thankful for the plan God has for my life and how he brought me to my church. I am thankful for my leaders that he placed in my life to help me grow and who refine me. I am thankful for how God placed me at Grand View so I could help share the Good News of Jesus with people. I am thankful for the ability to share the gospel with others and see them grow. I am thankful for God's calling and purpose for my life. I am thankful for my salvation from Jesus and that I am a child of God. I am thankful for brothers and sisters who always have my back. I am thankful for how much the Lord has taught me in the last year and how much he still wants to teach me. I am thankful for how God always provides in every situation. I am thankful for my roommates who I have learned a lot from these past years and how He placed each one in my life for a specific reason. I am thankful for many things but the one thing I am so truly thankful for is how much God is Faithful. He is faithful no matter what happens in my life.

Things Accomplished

In this past week so far, I have been able to catch up on drawings. I am so thankful that I have not had the urge to go on facebook for almost a week. It has been a great experience and I have completed many tasks that I had been putting off. I am so excited for this weekend because I have a wedding on Friday, church Saturday, and Celebration Sunday on Sunday. I am so excited because I will be able to catch up with people who I don't see very often. I am also excited for this weekend because I get to a part of an event where people dress up as Princesses and Pirates. This weekend is going to be busy but I am prepared and ready.
