Psalm 68:19

Blessed be the Lord,
Who daily loads us with benefits, Psalm 68:19

I am going to spend the month of November writing about the benefits God daily loads upon me.  Not only do I want to do this because we celebrate Thanksgiving Day at the end of the month, but also to remind me to reflect every day on all that I should be thankful for, all of my blessings from God.
I’m going into November with a bit of a heavy heart.  I had a wonderful opportunity to teach Middle School art for the whole month of October because of medical issues of the current teacher.  I am so thankful that she requested me and also that administration approved.  My experience was better than I had anticipated.  Every aspect of teaching art was wonderful. 

I love it where I normally work, but I’m so afraid of the “let down” that will ensue once I return to my regular job. So, I figure that if I spend each day writing (and praying) about blessings I receive daily from God, then discontentment and sadness will have a harder time seeping into my heart.
