I don't always feel it. I want to. I know His promises are true. There are days, however...
I want to thank Him and be grateful for everything. How do I do that when I'm not? I'm not thankful when I am struggling. It hurts sometimes, and it's difficult for me to just accept it for what it is.
Then...
I draw strength from others, and from what I know to be true about God. Last week I made a thankful tree. I found the idea on www.aholyexperience.com. It has helped me pause and reflect for a moment on what matters most - God. There I can find the strength to remember something that I can be thankful for, no matter what else is going on.

Glory be to God, He is my strength and my song. He can bring me out of whatever funk I find myself in, and for that I am thankful!

Holding on, for that moment my sadness passes and I am refreshed and renewed.
I know it will come, sooner rather than later. Thank you, Jesus!
