I Am Grateful
It's Saturday morning and I woke up thinking about the daily word I read on Monday. Back story, my grandmother subscribed the whole family to the DailyWord. At first, I was like "oh grandma" but then Mike read it one day - passed it to me and we have been hooked ever sense. In fact, it's a must read in the Steel home every morning. A tradition, I will pass on to my children :)
Anyways, the message was simple:

I am grateful

Starting the day in gratitude, my first prayer is Thank You, God! I am grateful for beauty and love, for surprises and excitement, for friendship and community, and for the presence of God in all.
Even if I may be going through a challenging experience, I am grateful, for I know that good will come from it. Will I learn of inner strength that I didn't know I had? Will I gain a renewed appreciation for my life and the people in it?
I am grateful for my present circumstances, for I know they offer opportunities for growth. I thank God for the life I have been given and the life I am creating by seeing the good in all that comes before me.
