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. Thank you Jesus that you are just waiting, with grace, for me to had over control again. & Thank you Jesus for this lil gratitude group to build relationships on the foundation thankfulness <3

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
