Day Five – Gratitude – Abundance

Gratitude – Day 5 – Abundance Last night, in the process of looking for an item of clothing, I decided to clean out my chest of drawers. I struggle to find room for my clothing in my dresser and my closet. Everything is always packed full to overflowing. When I had finished taking out clothes that either no longer fit or that I don’t even like, four out of my five drawers were completely empty. Completely. Empty. Which means that time I spent looking for places to put my clothes was ... read more

Day Four – Gratitude – The Way God Works

Day 4 – Grateful – The Way God Works This is my third attempt at writing what I am grateful for today. When God originally gave me this idea, I wrote an outline for what I would write about each day.

Feelings Aren’t Truth

Today I have been discouraged. I have felt hurt, sad, and afraid. Which makes me even more grateful that while the way we feel is real, it isn’t always truth.

What is worse is that they are blaringly obvious lies, they almost always contain just enough truth that we can easily convince ... read more

Day 2 – Created Anyway

Day 2 – Created Anyway On my birthday, I often think of how grateful I am that my parents chose to have me in the first place. Much like myself, I don’t think they could have ever guessed how hard it would be to have a child. I took a course in babysitting at 13 and then as soon as I could started watching any child I could. I continued to babysit and work with kids throughout my college years. I graduated with a degree in special education and elementary education. I taught in a classroom ... read more

Gratitude – Hope for the Heart

Last November found me in deep canyon of depression. I had been there for quite some time and exhausted from the sheer weight of darkness pressing in on me, not to mention the numerous ways and times I had tried to pull myself out of that abyss. I chose to follow The Loved Bible Project in their monthly devotional because I receive immense joy from putting a Loved Bible together. My hope was that by reading something everyday and spending some time investing in a Loved Bible, I would begin to ... read more
