While going through some journals last night I found one "article" in particular that I wrote on August 1, 2011. I still remember the moments I wrote this. I vowed to myself that I would remember these words and think of them daily. Since the day I wrote this article I have looked over it maybe two times and then I have forgotten about it with the hustle and bustle of life. I am going to rewrite my words again on this blog so every time I log in I will see the title of this blog and remember.

Blessings...I feel that I have honestly been blessed beyond measure. My whole life I have had what I needed, sometimes it took a little hardship and a whole lot of faith but God has always provided.
Lately I think that I have taken all that I have been blessed with for granted. A lady at church last Sunday repeated a saying she had heard. It was something like... "what if you woke up in the morning with everything you thanked God for today?".
That really shook me! What if that were to happen? Have I thanked God for all of the blessings he has poured out on me or just the things that seemed above and beyond and the rest I just kind of expect from Him.
He is an almighty God and I am far from deserving all of the awesomeness he has placed in my life.
My prayer today: God I thank you for EVERYTHING you have blessed me with! My family, friends, health, faith...there is not enough time to list all of the things I am thankful for. Most importantly though, thank you for sending your Son to die for my sins!
