Thankful for Everything

The other day, Lynda and I were on our way to a sales and marketing meeting. I was at an intersection and waiting impatiently for traffic to clear. A dump truck was coming our way and turning onto the street, where we were stopped waiting our turn. I decided this was my chance; move out to proceed towards our destination.

As I pulled out, there it was a red vehicle.. I slammed on my brakes, he swerved and we missed each other. Wow, I was thankful that the Lord had helped us and Lyn did not share with me her feelings.

I began to think about how thankful I was while the Holy Spirit began to help me think beyond the big things. There are many things to be thankful for that we may not notice. I call these small things. It seems I have categorized my thankfulness instead of developing a thankful attitude for everything. It changed my focus and I began to see everything different.

Let’s take some time this weekend and make a list of everything we can be thankful for together, especially Friday night pizza and a DVD.

Have a great weekend.

Praying for you
