Here's some of what I've written recently:
Be thankful

I spent some time today with someone who–through his actions, the choices of others, and just circumstances–is going through a difficult time. It was a reminder of many of the blessings that I enjoy.

You may be going through a difficult time (or, you might currently be on top of the world). Whatever your situation, try to remember something that you appreciate. It may be as simple as having access to the Internet (you’re reading this, aren’t you?). I know the holidays are technically over, but thanks giving never goes out of style.

Here’s a challenge: offer gratitude this week. Me? I’ll be writing a personal list and trying to remember to thank God and those around me for so many great things in my life. I hope you do the same.

      Thanks! This picture was actually taken from the driveway of my family’s home in central Texas.
