Today's thankful post:

The Gospel

Yesterday, while in church I had an awakening, a good feeling, a warm fuzzy if you will.

I am truly thankful for the church.. not the literal building..

The gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints .

I am grateful for all that I have learned and had to go through to be who I am today. I know I will have to go through many more trials, but I know that I can make it through because I have the knowledge of the gospel and I know Heavenly Father loves me and wants the best for me.

I am also thankful for all of those people who were answers to my prayers in helping me through so much.. Some don't even know it but I know they were placed in my life for very specific reasons.

We sang this hymn yesterday during church.. it's one of my favorites!!

Count your Blessings

When upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed,

When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,

Count your many blessings, name them one by one,

And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

--------

Chorus: Count your blessings, name them one by one,

Count your blessings, see what God hath done!

Count your blessings, name them one by one,

And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done

-----------

Are you ever burdened with a load of care?

Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?

Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,

And you will keep singing as the days go by.

chorus

When you look at others with their lands and gold,

Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;

Count your many blessings. Wealth can never buy

Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.

chorus

So, amid the conflict whether great or small,

Do not be disheartened, God is over all;

Count your many blessings, angels will attend,

Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.
