from THINKING to THANKING!

Ok sooo church service this Sunday was quite enlightening...I will share with you something that I thought was powerful! Pastor said 'if you are thinking then you should be thanking". What does that mean...if you think about the things in your life, you will thank God in return. Change your thInking to thAnking..It's not about you, but About God. Let me share with you how my thinking change to thanking.

• When I think about how fat, overweight, and obese I was...I thank God for not having a heart attack, stroke, or diabetes.
• When I think about the times I had unprotected sex...I thank God I am disease free.
• When I think about the times I drove intoxicated...I thank God for guiding me safely home.
• When I think about the depression I was in because I couldn't have kids...I thank God for allowing me to adopt my wonderful son.
• When I think about the times I didn't know where my next meal would come from...I thank God for being my provider.
• When I think about the times I sat and cried over some guy that didn't want me anymore...I thank God that he could see what I couldn't and removed that person from my life.
• When I think about the times I put myself in situations that could have resulted in murder, rape, etc...I thank God for being my protector.
• When I think about the times I was put in --what I thought were bad situations...I thank God for those situations being a motivator to step out on faith and start my business.
• When I think about how I could have chosen the wrong friends to be in my life....I thank God for having the right mind to choosef friends that are supportive and there for me always.
• When I think about the terrible childhood I could have had....I thank God for blessing me with wonderful parents, grandparents, and siblings.
• When I think about how many friends of mine have died in their 20s, 30s, 40s....I thank God for allowing me to see 42.

Now you see just some of the things I have listed...the point is if you are thinking about something...you should also so be thanking God for something.

I challenge you to create a list of your thinkings and thankings....Be blessed.
