ABC’s of Thankfulness

This past weekend, Max preached on the ABC’s of Gratitude and giving God thanks for things in our life. I loved it so much that I came home and made my own list. I really wanted to share this with all of you because I think its a great tool to turn our attitudes around on “bad days” and just meditate on all things God has blessed us with that we can be thankful for in life. My list is below and feel free to link up your own below. I would love to read your list and just share in being thankful!
