I just got home from church a few minutes ago and I felt a surge of gratitude for so many things in my life. I was hurriedly putting clothes away and cleaning up and felt prompted to get on my knees and express the feelings of gratitude to my Heavenly Father. I noticed as I verbalized the feelings and thoughts of my heart, the gratitude grew even greater.
I am so thankful for my life. I am so grateful for my good health. I am healthy and strong. My body has never let me down. I am so grateful for having my basic needs provided for, always. I am grateful for my parents being willing to help me out until I get back on my feet again by letting me live with them. I am so grateful that I was blessed with three beautiful children. They are amazing people and I am grateful that God entrusted them to me. I am grateful for my friends. I have been blessed with amazing friends. They have enriched my life and I don't know how I could survive without them. I am grateful for the Gospel and my knowledge of its truthfulness. I am grateful for being able to go to the temple weekly to renew my perspective and dedication to living well. I am grateful for my education and my career. It is a perfect opportunity to be in a position to serve others with my whole heart and get paid for it so I can take care of my children. I am grateful for this amazing country. I am grateful for my sense of humor. It helps me uplift others and not take too many things too seriously. I am grateful for the desire Heavenly Father has implanted in me to love Him and trust in Him. This desire will benefit me forever. I am grateful for the hope I have of the continued stream of good things the Lord will continue to bless me with if I just look to Him to find real joy and purpose. I am grateful for all these things.
