Thanks for Everything

"Think positive and all your dreams will come true."

It has always sounded shallow to me, like kissing a rabbit's foot for good luck. 

Being positive for me means being grateful. 

Thanks for everything ! Bible verses memorized as a child remind me to thank God in all situations, the good and the bad.

Washing dishes I felt impatient to continue my slipcover sewing project. I thought about how to be thankful while doing this necessary chore . . .

TONS of thoughts came to my mind !

soap

warmth

fresh scent 

dishes, beautiful dishes

health

disinfectant

shelter

food

freedom

time

energy

clarity

just to name a few . . . .

I thought about what being thankful does for my ATTITUDE . . . 

I am positive and encouraged knowing that I am surrendered to the Divine Plan for my life and that everything that happens works for my good.

I understand that some things working in me are spiritual changes, invisible changes . . .

So, thanks for everything, God !!!
