Being Thankful Isn't Just for Thanksgiving

As it is getting closer to Fall, we begin to think about Thanksgiving. All the statuses on Facebook automatically turn to the 20 something days of what we are thankful for. But why are we just thankful on Thanksgiving? We should express our gratitude every day. Sometimes the good things in life get overshadowed by the bad things. By taking just a couple minutes everyday we can put ourselves in a positive mindset and realize that it could always be worse. Lately I have discovered keeping a gratitude journal. All you have to do is write down one thing you are thankful for everyday and why. The goal is to keep it a whole year and not repeated the same thing twice. It can be big things or little things but it helps us tune in and realize we have so much to be thankful for. Here are a few journal options we have at the Shoppe;

Or you could even write this in a plain notebook or a notepad. So, I encourage you all to start your own gratitude journal and realize that we all have a lot to be thankful for.

I am thankful for my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ because without him nothing would be possible.
