Hi all! I am a little late to this weeks post, but here I am nonetheless. Today, I woke up and went for a walk through Battery Park with my roommate. It was so cold, literally 25 out, but I was so content. I just want to take a second and thank Jesus for the beautiful life I have, the comfort I feel in morning, and the beauty of good conversation and friendship. Happy Sunday!!

I am grateful for the simple things. The birds I hear every day. They remind me of growing up and being at my grandmas house. Watching her make tortillas and drinking sweet tea.
Hey friends!!! Today, I want to get a little something off my chest about my recent feelings toward gratitude. Lately, praying and thanking the Lord for things has been such a blessing, as always, but it has been hard for me to stop focusing on the struggles in life even after I am praying or finding gratitude in them. This makes me extremely guilty, as gratitude is supposed to lift you up and help you find an alternate perspective, reducing the habit of taking things for granted. So, I have just been consistently (literally every hour) thanking Jesus for everything wrong in my life, and this feeling of guilt for dwelling. It has really helped me not only get this weight off, but appreciate the importance of gratitude -- consistency is KEY. So today I am thankful for:
WARM WEATHER IN NYC! it is around 50 lately and that is…
The Gratitude Group - seems some what ironic considering the lack of it in my life, which simultaneously makes it even more meaningful. Tonight, upon realizing the immense amount of stress I’ve accumulated vs the non-exsistent amount of trust I’ve given to God, I made The decision to be flip those amounts around. I wrote, “Thank you Jesus...” and listed off anything I could think of in that moment. Even things that haven’t come to pass yet, but that’s what faith is - believing in what you HAVENT seen as if you HAVE. Somewhere down the way, I forgot that. I wrote about anything I’ve been complaining about but in a positive light. My dogs, my fiancé, money. Thank you Jesus my dogs are alive (having just survived Parvo), thank you Jesus my fiancé has the patience of a literal saint, thank you Jesus I’ve never missed a bill. Than…

Sorry I’m late to post! I am grateful to all the amazing people that harvest our food! They work so hard everyday of their life and deal with prejudice from people that would not or could not do that job! I know I would not make it in those fields! The other morning on my way to work, around 6:45am I saw a group of field workers all in a circle in front of the field they were about to harvest and they were all doing stretching exercises and I envied them! They do important work and they are one with the earth for those hours of harvesting enjoying this beautiful weather we have here in Yuma, AZ. So a huge thank you to any and all that have done that hard work! 🥦🥬

Aja! I LOVE THIS. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into your daily struggles with gratitude, and how you are overcoming those things. I, too, have felt gratitude lately as a heavy weight, not something to take the weight off. It makes me feel even worse to feel that way. Prayer has SAVED me in that sense, where I can throw my worries and guilt away, and just be thankful, even for the struggles. I am SO sorry you dogs had Parvo, wishing for a quick recovery. Again, this is really inspiring to find the goodness of gratitude even in the midst of darkness or uncertainty. <33
