Good morning

I did it. I started to journal yesterday.  I only have two things on the list for now, but I have started.  Of course as i feared I write a blessing down and get to work and the day goes down the drain quick.  Thankful for a co-worker who was as stressed if not more stressed than myself held it together and was very encouraging to me.  I am finding it hard to find the blessings in the present.  I can write a bunch down from last week or last month that I made mental note of but am finding it hard to find it in the present.  I keep going back to, "thanks precedes the miracle" and "He gave thanks and broke the bread".  I know there is a lot more to that then I am comprehending right now.  This all seems so easy in theory but so hard to follow through with.  Why do we make it so hard when really it is so easy?  Again I believe that has a lot to do with the wrong thinking that I have had for way to long.  Today is a new day and with God's help I will find the many blessings that He showers on us, on me.  This is how my day is starting though; I get woke up with sick pet at 3:30 am, hubby not sleeping well and a massive headache.  Satan sure tries hard to ruin the good we strive for and he tries so hard to sell the lie that God does not care or He would not let the "bad" happen to us.  I know this is a lie.  So I will strive to keep on keeping on.
