Happy Thankful Thursday, My Friends! I am sending hugs your way! I hope you woke up with a thankful heart. You might have wanted to stay in bed longer and you may not be feeling your best and you may need more rest.
So, this hug I’m sending you is to say, “Come on! Get up and get going! God is going to do amazing things for you today.”
No matter how bad or good your life may be, there are many more who have it so much worse. Look around you and really see all the blessings you have.
What about the home you are in? Blessing. What about the phone/computer you are reading this from? Blessing. What about the clothes on your back? Blessing. What about the breakfast you are having? Blessing. What about your health? Feeling pretty good? Blessing.
Sometimes we take for granted all the little things we have that are actually blessings. There are millions of people who don’t have a home. Who do not have a computer or phone. They wear the same clothes for weeks or months or until they fall off their body. Some people are not having a nice, hot breakfast. They are not having any breakfast at all. And there are people who thought they would be here this morning, but they didn’t make it through the night.
But you did. You made it. You woke up. You get another day to walk with God. Another day to spend with your family. Another day to breathe.
And I, for one, am thankful for this day. And I am sending you this hug to say, “I am thankful for you.”

Thank you for reminding us all to be thankful and for the hug. You know, I read somewhere that we need 11 hugs a day. That seems like a lot, but there are some who never really get a hug. Thanks for sending one. Now to get the remaining 10……:-)
