Being Thankful Even if it Hurts

Yesterday, I welcomed this week of Thanksgiving. One day isn’t enough for us to express our gratitude for God’s goodness and mercy for so many blessings.

Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.

I’m starting this Thanksgiving week with so much gratitude to God for His love and His many blessings — far more than I could ever deserve! I am not lucky, fortunate, or merely disciplined – I am the recipient of God’s grace – His unmerited favor because I am His and He is mine. It’s…
