Yesterday was day 10 and I so busy doing other things that I did not remember to post. This morning when I woke up, I felt guilty. Why? I had made a promise to God, a commitment that I genuinely want to keep. God has never, not once faltered in His commitments to me, every promise He has made, He has kept. He has saved me, given me new life, and He provides for my needs. He deserves so much more from me than a daily post. So today I woke up spent time alone with Him… (sadly repenting). But here is what I learned from that time. God forgives and He allows us to a chance to do it again. So yes, today I am writing about yesterday, but had I not messed up, had I not forgotten I would not have learned this lesson (which someone else may need to learn): God gives us newness everyday, everyday is a chance for us to repent and try again. Now that’s a reason to be thankful!

“Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning” (Lamentations 3:23).

So what am I thankful for today (that I should have been thankful for yesterday 😀 )? New mercies everyday and chance to do it right the next time around.

And yes I will be writing today’s, today… 😀

I wanted to do something new. Not something arbitrary like joining a gym, losing weight, getting married, etc. I wanted to change from the inside-out. So, I decided to find one thing to be thankful for each day. On this journey some days have been really good, while others have been disastrously bad, yet every day has produced at least one reason to be thankful. My perspective is changing and for that I am ... Thankful.
