This is a blog of gratitude, updated daily. This blog is the result of a personal challenge: to see how many things I can find to be grateful for. Is there a limit to the amount of good in our lives, in our modern world? I believe the limit doesn't exist.

You Are Awesome
A few years ago, I heard a local church leader talk about "awesomizing" people. Basically, the idea is to lift people up by reminding them not only of their talents and capabilities, but also that they're just awesome. See the good and voice it. I am reminded of a meme I saw recently: "When I am stressed, I stop being stressed and start being awesome." Of course the word awesome is a very vague and generic term, but I hope you get my point. There were a few times today when I was reminded of my potential to be a better person, that I am doing better than I realize. These reminders came as simple thoughts, which I believe were small, subtle manifestations of the Holy Spirit, reminding me of my potential and of God's love for me. I am grateful to be reminded of this, so I can more easily see the good in other people.
