Well, hello November! It’s hard to believe that November has crept up so quickly. This marks the start of colder weather and the holiday season, but most of all, November is a month of thankfulness!
Without thankfulness there is no happiness and without happiness there is no peace!
{Colossians 3:15} And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.
You make your own choices, so choose to be thankful and happy!
{Deuteronomy 11:26} “Look, today I am giving you the choice between a blessing and a curse!
In this chaotic world..it is easy to overlook all that is good and to fail to notice your blessings. It is easy to get caught up in the world and it’s evil-doings. But never fear, God is our peace, He is love, and He is our strength! Look to God when you feel overwhelmed, lonely, discouraged, sad, or lost…He will lead you, He will protect you, and He will strengthen you! Give it to God by praying for his help.
{Isaiah 41:10} Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
And always remember, there is always someone else praying for what you have..so be grateful for what God has given you!
{1 Thessalonians 5:18} Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
The more grateful you are, the more blessings you will receive, or at least you will be more aware of your blessings. And when you focus on your blessings, your happiness increases!
So, this month, I challenge you to make it part of your daily routine to count your blessings & thank God for them all & watch your life change, watch your blessings and happiness increase.
May you have a month filled with love, blessings, happiness, and thanksgiving!
