Blessings posted in General on 1/17/12 @ 8:54 PM by Jordan Dean

God has been giving me so many blessings that I do not deserve at all. I love how much He gives me without me even asking for it. I thought it'd be cool to share our blessings with each other, ignoring all the negativity in our lives. Basically, just list a few things you are most thankful for (physical things, not the obvious [salvation, Heaven, etc.])
I am thankful for my 2 younger brothers and little sister and older sister. My girlfriend, my iPhone 4s, my 2 door red V6 Mitsubishi Eclipse sports car, my above-minimum wage job, my education and opportunity to take such advanced college courses in my senior year, my friends, my laptop, my 2 pet lizards, and the potential I have to do great things with my life thanks to God's grace. =]

This reminds me of something I heard Carman say in a sermon.

"You can think of lots of reasons why God should bless you, but I can also think of reasons why He shouldn't."
~ Carman

I'm thankful for friends, music, books, family, my doggy, my church fam.

Jordan I really like this topic because yes indeed we need to be thankful for the many blessing God has given.
For me, it's ofcourse having God in my life, family, friends [yes Joseph including you :).....see you on Saturday night at church...] my job, so many other things.

Last summer I was in Nicaragua, Central America. Lots of people there can't even afford shoes...but they are thankful and blessed for what they have. When we handed them backpacks of school supplies, the kids were so excited that they didn't even want to put them on the ground because they didn't want the backpacks to get dirty.

Being in that country really taught me how thankful I should really be.

It's definitely important to look at the positive. So many times we get hung up on the negative in our lives and wish it could change, that we forget the blessing we do have. So it's great to have this topic.

I'm thankful for being able to live in the country. You just get to see soo many amazing things that God created.

I'm thankful for all of my animals and pets, especially my dog. They are really gifts from God and they teach us so much.

I'm thankful for the gift of music which God has given me.

I'm thankful for the passion God has given me for foreign languages.

I am thankful for the food that God gives us. So many people have nothing to eat. We are so blessed and a lot of times we waste.
