Welcome!

Hello,

In 2012, I made a commitment to express more gratitude to God and to other people. I also wanted to look for the tender mercies of the Lord in my daily life, to find the ways God has a hand in blessing my life from day to day. I started by writing my daily gratitude in a journal. A couple of months later, I had the inspired idea to make a blog of my gratitude. I felt others could benefit from a daily reminder to be grateful just as I benefit from it. This is one way I try to be a blessing in the lives of others. Each day, I approach my blog posts with this question: "So, what am I grateful for today?" Then, I answer my question and call it my "daily grateful".

I believe God exists and wants us, His children, to be happy. We all know there is so much about our society and our world that is in need of repair or improvement. Even though there is still much to do, there is much we can be grateful for no matter our circumstances. It is often easy to forget how blessed we are, as individuals as well as a society.

So, what am I grateful for today? You are welcome to find out. In addition to sharing my gratitude with others, this blog will be a record of the good I see in the world. I hope these daily posts will show how God shows His love for each of us every day.

Make it a great day!
