In January, Mom encouraged me to keep a daily gratitude notebook. Each morning when I read my Bible I write three things I'm grateful for in a notebook. I number each one and write the date next to them; now I have over 500.
Here are the top 20 things I'm grateful for:
- My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His everlasting love
- The Word of God
- My loving family
- My friends
- My home
- All the beauty of nature God created for us to enjoy
- Music (hymns especially)
- God's bountiful provision of food and clothing
- The freedom to worship God as He commands
- The decision of my parents to homeschool us and the freedom to do so
- Health
- Our five senses
- Our dog Ginger
- Piano
- Books
- Electricity
- Audiobooks
- Modern technology
- The seasons
- All the many blessings God showers upon us
