Sunday night at church our pastor talked about how gratitude can be the solution to many problems in our life! One of those is discontentment that leads to covetousness. The more ungrateful we are the more likely we are to complain, be jealous of others and their possessions, and generally be unhappy with our life the way it is. So for me, learning to be thankful is a journey...it is a journey that I am so very pleased to be on. Can I say that I am thankful to be learning to be more ...

Things Above…
This morning was such a wonderful morning at church. I could almost touch the joy and presence of the Lord. It's not always that way, for sure...and usually if not, it's my own fault.
