Today I am thankful!

Today has been a strange day for me.  It's hard to describe, or even 'put my finger on it', but everywhere I've turned today, I saw another reason to be thankful!  I've been  busy asking God to help me find a job, or to help me in some other way, or give me this or that....always asking for more & more.....but today, I feel nothing but thanks in my heart for all the blessings he has already given me.  Simple things, really.  I am truly thankful that I have a friend like Betty, who took me to lunch today & even surprised me with a birthday gift.    I am thankful that I have a good vehicle that got me to that lunch date.  I am thankful that I was able to buy a few groceries on my way home which will get me thru a few more days.  I have a coat, when it's cold out.  I have all that I need for today.  The Bible tells me in Matthew 10:31 that even as God takes care of sparrows....he will take care of me & provide for me.  So far....He's done just that.  Even when I worry & wonder "how"....He's there.  I've not gone hungry.  I've not slept in the streets.  I've not shivered in the rain & cold.  I have a roof over my head & a warm bed at night.  I have laughter, even in the hard times, and my pets to amuse me & take my mind off of worldly problems.  I have people that love me & let me know that. My siblings have helped me financially, so that I am still able to "maintain" until a job finds me.
 I am truly, truly, blessed, TODAY, and I will not worry about tomorrow....for God's already there!
