A year ago today, I did a ABC’s of Thankfulness post and I thought this would be really fitting to do again since life has been a little crazy lately. The post originally came from a sermon Max preached on the ABC’s of Gratitude and giving God thanks for things in our life (big and small). 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. Here is my new list below and feel free to link up your own in the comments. I would love to read your list and just share in being thankful!

This is great! It’s always good to reflect on what you’re thankful for and what a creative way to do it!
Marquis Clarke
This is such an easy way to make us stop and realize just a few things that we are thankful for. What a great idea.
Marquis Clarke
Fun idea!!! Nice job on the hard letters like Z 🙂
Marquis Clarke
I remember this! My TimeHop app reminded me today too. So fun!
Marquis Clarke
Love this idea! May I borrow it for a blog post, too? It’s so easy to get wrapped up in the world that we oftentimes stop thanking God for the little things. Thank YOU for reminding us to be thankful! 🙂
Marquis Clarke

Marquis Clarke
I love this list. I need to make one. Things are crazy at work and it would be great to remember things.
Marquis Clarke
Haha Z was perfect. Never knew I was grateful for Zinc until now! I need to do this, great idea!
