Mid-Week Inspiration: Wednesday, November 9, 2022
Every morning we wake up and rush off to another busy day. A day full of distractions. A day full of difficult people and difficult situations.
We get caught up in our day-to-day problems and so easily forget about the blessings of life.
The psalmist reminds us: “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!”
Life is a gift given to us by our Creator. In it, we are surrounded by friends and family, surrounded by the beauty of creation and the wonder of life.
Take a moment to slow down. Be thankful for what you have learned and for your past journey and the present moment.
Don’t let distractions distract you from being thankful.
For what and for whom do you need to be thankful today?

In November, I will include notes of thanks from my readers in my Sunday Newsletter. So who or what are you thankful for? And why?
