Creating a thankfulness journal

     One of the things I have found very helpful is having a thankfulness/gratefulness journal.  Journaling all of the blessings of each day is great for helping one keep focus on the many blessings of God, some of which we easily take for granted.  O, to be content only with food and raiment, however.  When you know that you are going to journal your blessings, it even seems to help you to be on the lookout for them.  For example, Rachel is off today.  For her to come here, and spend hours with us is a great blessing to me, because there are hundred and one other things that she could choose to do.  Definitely going in my gratefulness journal.  Praise the Lord.
