Happy Thanksgiving!!!
It’s Thanksgiving week, y’all, and let me tell you—this is my absolute favorite holiday. Back in the day, it was my favorite because we automatically got two days off work and the Christmas season went into full swing. But now? It’s deeper than that. It’s my favorite because it’s all about giving thanks.
When I take a step back and look at my life, there’s not a single part of it where I can’t see God’s goodness and grace. Every moment, every blessing, every lesson—He’s been there. And for that, I give Him thanks.
So, here’s a little challenge for you this week: as you take time off, whether you’re spending it with family, friends, or enjoying some quiet time solo, write down ten things you’re thankful for.
I’ll go first:
1. I’m thankful for my relationship with God—it’s grown so much this year.
2. I’m thankful for my health and the ability to move and do things.
3. I’m thankful for God’s protection, from dangers I’ve seen and the ones I haven’t.
4. I’m thankful for my family, my friends, and my church community.
5. I’m thankful for my job, which lets me provide for myself and others.
6. I’m thankful for clean water to drink and bathe.
7. I’m thankful for my car, L Beeszy, so I don’t have to walk everywhere!
8. I’m thankful for a cozy apartment to call home.
9. I’m thankful for my little garden—it’s been such a peaceful place for me this year.
10. And I’m thankful for YOU—for showing up, for being part of this community, and for sharing this journey with me.
Honestly, I could keep going, but I’ll stop here so you can jump in! What are you thankful for? Hit me up in the comments or reply to this post—I’d love to hear all the things that fill your heart with gratitude.
Happy Thanksgiving, friends! Let’s pop off on being thankful together.
“O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: For his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks unto the God of gods: For his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks to the Lord of Lords: For his mercy endureth for ever.” Psalm 136:1-3 KJV
