30 Days of Thanks: Day 23



I wish I could say today was a stellar day. I've just felt "off" all day long.  I ate too much, thought too much and had a hard time staying focused during service. I took a long nap after church and felt so much more rested. Emotionally, I feel down and out of sorts.  But.... I still want to look past my "feelings" and give thanks. 

I give thanks :

  • for a long nap
  • that my husband fed the kids dinner, had them watch a movie and ready for an early bedtime and just let me sleep until I woke up.
  • things that make me laugh
  • that our schedule is very low-key this week
  • for no-school until January
  • for Christmas crafts 
  • for convenience food---sometimes you just don't feel like cooking from scratch
  • that tomorrow is a new day with tons of possibilities

Give thanks in all circumstances; 
for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
1 Thessalonians 5:18
