In Everything Give Thanks

I've been experiencing some challenges lately. It's easy to become distracted by changes in interpersonal relationships, but ultimately, I have to remember how blessed I am.

"Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." -1 Thessalonians 5:18 [NIV]

I purchased a magnetic sign for my room that says "in everything give thanks" along with the black baseboard to hold it. It's a reminder to myself, as well as a challenge, to remember that things could always be worse and that my life isn't so bad. I have family, shelter, and food - and a job.
