Thankfulness
For November, I have a challenge for each of you I think might change your heart towards an attitude of gratitude. For years I have challenged myself at the end of the day to thank God for 10 good things that happened that day. I would like to challenge you to write down just 5 things at the end of each day you are thankful for, not repeating any the next day. After Thanksgiving, read your list and see all the wonderful things God does every day. For example, here is how God has blessed me so far today: 1) I arrived safely to church in the rain and my umbrella did not turn inside out; 2) We had a great staff meeting where we made some major breakthroughs; 3) I had lunch with Kyle and Ty who were willing to spend time with a woman at least 10 years their senior! 4) We were able to authorize some benevolence help for a member in need; 5) I got to spend some time in prayer with my fellow staff members. Try this for the month of November and see if this makes an impact on the way you think and your thankfulness for how good God is to you each day.
