Final day...day 30...#Thankful

So its the last day of my ''30 days of thanksgiving'' challenge and I am thankful to God for giving me the strength and drive to do this because it has had an amazing effect on my outlook and approach to life. I feel so blessed and it has also shown me that concentrating on the things I have rather than the things I don't have has not only made me appreciate life more but in the end, I realise that I actually do have all I need and as a result, God keeps blessing me. Not too sure if you get that but the above quote from Oprah Winfrey says it all. Thankful.

Day 29...#Thankful

I am thankful for all those who said ''NO''...thankful for all the times I was turned down...thankful for all the times people never believed in me for one reason or the other because that way, I was able to believe in myself, I was stronger and eventually, I was able to do it myself. I have learned that sometimes, tough love is the best love. Thankful.

Day 28...#Thankful

Just realised that in 2 days, it will be the end of the first half of 2014...so...I am thankful for this first half. God has been faithful. He has kept me through January, February, March, April, May and June!!! So many died along the way and they never got the chance to experience this first half of 2014 and for this again, I am very thankful. It is not by my own doing or my own strength but by His special Grace. I pray the 2nd half of 2014 brings on bigger, newer and better things. Thankful.

Day 27...#Thankful

I am thankful to God for the different opportunities He has given me; both past and present, in my life, career, finances, relationships etc. I also thank Him in advance for the ones He will give me. He is truly a merciful God and I know He will keep creating opportunities and opening doors for me. God will make a way when/where there seems to be no way and He walks in ways we cannot see. Thankful.

Day 26...#Thankful

So I've got four days left until the end of my ''30 days of thanksgiving'' exercise. To be honest, didn't think I could do it or that I would actually remember to post every morning, wow! Anyway here's to day 26...I am thankful for peace and contentment. According to my Bible, God has blessed me with His peace which passes all understanding and because of this, I am truly content and satisfied in Christ Jesus. I have also learned not to EVER compare myself with anyone because we are all different and God chooses who He wants to bless and how He wants to bless, for ''when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding''-2 Corinthians 10:12. Thankful.

Day 25...#Thankful

I am thankful for growth in every aspect of my life. I may not be where I want to be right now but I know for a fact that I am not where I was yesterday. Thankful for purpose and growth and most importantly, growth in Christ. God will take us higher and higher as long as we live according to His Will for our lives. Thankful.

Day 24...#Thankful

I am thankful for hope. Hope for a better tomorrow, hope for a better life, hope for a better future. Hope means ''to expect with confidence'' and ''to cherish a desire with anticipation'' according to Wikipedia. God's hope reigns supreme and it gives me the strength to want to carry on because I know I already have a better tomorrow. Thank You Lord for this gift. Thankful.

I am thankful for my Sister-in-law who is more like a Sister to me really, its her BIRTHDAY today! We have come a long way, had the usual ups and downs but only ended up coming out stronger. I am glad we get along fine now and I thank God for her life and I know she will make my Brother a very happy man. And oh did I forget to mention she always spoils me silly?! Love her to bits. Here's to many more happy years and happy birthday dearest Sister! Thankful.

Day 22...#Thankful

Okay here goes...I am thankful for my Boss. She is also like a mentor and someone I definitely look up to and believe me when I say there are very FEW people I look up to, like very FEW! Her drive, motivation and success are simply amazing and I love that she never quits until she gets what she wants. She is a go-getter to the core! yes the work does get crazy every now and then and sometimes I just want to scream because she is a no-nonsense person but this is just the right start and foundation for me. Truthfully, I wouldn't mind being like her when I grow up. lol. Thankful for her leadership and mentoring. Thankful.

Day 21...#Thankful

I am thankful for the weekends. Okay so as I was driving in traffic last night (these days I do nothing less than 3 hours in traffic every evening...crazy!), I kept thinking Lord what if I have to do this again tomorrow? What if it wasn't a weekend tomorrow? I was just so physically exhausted and couldn't imagine going through that very moment again the next day ugh! So I am so very thankful for the weekend, God created Saturdays and Sundays for a reason, for rest! I know some people do it but imagine if I had to do the whole traffic thing non-stop monday to sunday...Thank goodness! Thankful.
