#Blessed Part 2

I have been working to complete my Week 2 assignments for my online Bible Study "Stressed Less Living".  For week 1, I began listing all the ways I am blessed.

Here is that list:

Today I want to make a list of things I am thankful for:

1) that Jesus was willing to die for my sins
2) My husband who is also my best friend
3) Our four wonderful children and my mother who lives with us and provides help and support
4) That my husband has a job
5) That we serve a God for whom nothing is impossible
6) That we are free to read our Bibles and attend church services along with homeschooling our children
7) Our family and friends who support us

Now today I want to add to our list:
8) That we have health insurance
9) That my children and I are able to go with my husband to work and complete our homeschooling there
10) All four of our children have now accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior
11)  That we found a house to live in when we moved last August and have our home rented out currently
12)  That 6 of us are participating in a Beginner Band at our church
13)  That my children will be able to attend Music Camp through the Salvation Army this summer - three will be going on their new to them Brass instruments while my oldest goes for guitar.
14)  That my daughter and I are learning Timbrels together
15)  That we are able go to the YMCA as a family to work out and take care of our bodies that God blessed us with 


So as you can see again this week, we are truly blessed.  Sometimes it is easy to get caught up in the negatives all around us instead of looking for the good.  This week, I plan to strive to look for the good and concentrate on those things.
