Introduction
Welcome to your dailyeword, this is Dorette Schaal. This is the day that the Lord has made, why not rejoice? Why not be thankful? Why not pass on the blessings you have received to someone else? Why not be a worshipper? Why not spread the love of Jesus wherever you go? I hope you are encouraged to be a vessel of blessing wherever you go! You are blessed to be a blessing! Here is your dailyeword.
Why not begin every day by writing down 5 things that you are thankful for, or even start your own Daily Gratitude Journal. Or, even before you jump out of bed, express your gratitude to God for a new day from your lips to God’s ears. If you decide to start a Daily Gratitude Journal, you can have different categories like family, personal, career, spiritual, and growth areas sections and you can choose something to be grateful for daily in each of these categories. When I think about all the ways I am blessed, I can’t help but say thank you to God, for all he has done in my life. I have seen him turn even the worst of circumstances around in my world, and can say with conviction that just like Joseph, what the enemy meant for evil, God has turned around for my good. (Gen 50:20)
Ponder for a few moments and think about those in your life who you are most grateful for. Does everyone on your list know that you appreciate them? Why not take today to send a text, email or note to at least one of them to appropriately thank them for being in your life. And then maybe include in your Gratitude Journal a note to God. Here is mine!
Thank You, I can’t help but thank you,
For all that You have done
Thank You, I can’t help but thank You
You’re the reason I can come
Boldy to your throne
My heart has found a home
What more can I say
But thank you Lord
