As I was just changing the background on my blog, 2 viruses attacked the computer from the cutestblogontheblock.com. Luckily, we have a major spyware/antivirus program, but I wanted to warn all of you who use that site...
Now, onto more important things...
I had to share this from my devotional book. It's from Jesus Calling by Sarah Young.
"As you sit quietly in My Presence, let Me fill your heart and mind with thankfulness. This is the most direct way to achieve a thankful stance. If your mind needs a focal point, gaze at My love poured out to you on the cross. Remember that nothing in heaven or on earth can separate you from that love. This remembrance builds a foundation of gratitude in you, a foundation that circumstances cannot shake.
As you go through this day, look for tiny treasures strategically places along the way. I lovingly go before you and plant little pleasures to brighten your day. Look carefully for them, and pluck them one by one. When you reach the end of the day, you will have gathered a lovely bouquet. Offer it up to me with a grateful heart. Receive My Peace as you lie down to sleep, with thankful thoughts playing a lullaby in your mind."
This was too powerful not to share. I wanted to make a list of things I'm thankful for, but after reading this, I realized that I can never make a long enough list. God has blessed me tremendously. Yes, my family and I are going through a tough time right now, but He has been and will continue to be with us through the whole situation.
