Give Thanks Challenge - Day 2

Today I'm thankful for:

1. Fruits. I love eating fruits. I am thankful for the apples and pears that I'm munching on.
   
2. Chocolate. Particularly dark chocolate. On bad days or sad days a little bit of chocolate helps. I'm thankful that it can lift my mood up during my PMS times.. like right now. TMI, ya. Oh and it's quite a healthy kind of chocolate to have to control sugar cravings too.
   
3. Bras. I'm thankful someone invented bras out there for boobs, and I'm super thankful that the Jacob brand FINALLY decided to come out with my size! Hey it's big news for me.
   
4. A House. I've always had a roof over my head but God gave Stephen and I the money and the strength to take care of and to have our own house. We are blessed even though it is not easy but it's definitely not something we take for granted. 
   
5. Struggles. Financially, spiritually, emotionally. I'm glad for the struggles I've overcome cause it made me stronger and more mature. The struggles between my friends, my relationship with Stephen, with God, mission trips, etc all makes sense now. I think I'm thankful to have struggled and survived. No pain, no gain.
   
6. Forgiveness. It works both ways. Thanks for forgiving me for my faults and flaws and I'm thankful that only Jesus made forgiveness possible through his sacrifice.
   
7. Nail polish. Sometimes I find it therapeutic to paint my nails. Btw, OPI nail polish is nice only when it's pigmented and it's a dark color. Otherwise, Joe works pretty well.
   
8. Fellowship. I realize how many people lack a healthy Christian community in their lives. I can only give thanks that God has placed me where I am today and I have found true friendships through that. I'm glad I didn't give up and call it quits. Before it's more of a social club but now there are a few people who would pray with me, be accountable, are on the same page, and are really hungry for a Christian community vision - God's vision. It's very exciting!!
   
9. Blogs. Cause it's my hobby and I love it - writing mine and reading others.
   
10. Wedding Photographers. I'm just overall happy that our photographers are who they are and do what they do so well. I can't ask for more - they will do a great job on our wedding day!
