Dear God,

As I began my trek back home, I reflected upon my life with you.  I thought of your many blessings, the countless ways you have touched and inspired my life.  I figured if I died today my life was already full of goodness.

Some days I don't focus on gratitude.  I forget to acknowledge your gifts.  I go about my daily routine and fail to say thanks.  I take life for granted.  I don't want to do that.  I want to be a thankful person.  I want to live in thanksgiving every day.  I want to offer up my praise and devotion confessing you as the gift giver.

As I looked over the majestic rolling hills of Kentucky, I realized the gift of spring, geography, warm weather, horses, flowers, the ability to drive, safety, and family.  But more than all this, I thought of faith and how it always directs me back to you.

Thank you,
Faithful God,
for allowing me
to connect
with you.
Let that
relationship be
the most
important gift
in my life.
Help me
be a
thankful person
twenty four hours
a day.

Love, Andrea
