I am thrilled to have this day set aside to remember and to express appreciation!!.. One of the keys to a healthy life is to be able to genuinely express appreciation to and for others…… We have set a part of this great day aside to express appreciation in a couple of personal ways.
First, I thank God and “forget not all His benefits” to me in soooo many ways.Ps.103:2 Let me count the ways…. and verbally express my appreciation to Him! …. Adoption… Protection…. Companionship….. Provision…. Blessings….
Secondly, I look at all of my family and all those who have impacted my life ….. Now, this is going to take some time and no one is left out. When I do this with our family and friends, there is something to appreciate about everyone. And, we are not allowed to add anything negative to it.
I find that in doing this I must update my mind-sight and change my heart attitude. And I have at least a glimpse of God-sight into who this person who bugs me really is or can be. I find that I am truly blessed as I appreciate Jesus and all those past and present who are in my life. It is truly a great Memorial Day!!
