2020 has been a crazy, difficult year for so many. The prophet, President Nelson gave a brief message a week before Thanksgiving asking us to post what we are each grateful for on our social media accounts. He said we need to focus more on our blessings than our trials and it may surprise us how much we have been given. So here is Mom's 7 days...
DAY 1: I am grateful for 2020!! It definitely hasn’t been an easy year for so many reasons, however I have a closeness now with my Savior that I have never had before. #givethanks
Day 3: I’m grateful to worship “how, where or what they may”. It may look a little different today and the “where” has been changing from week to week, but the opportunity to worship wherever I am has been an incredible experience! #givethanks
Day4: I’m grateful for parents that instilled education at an early age. I am also grateful for the career I chose and how much I enjoy my job and working with incredible co-workers that make going to work easy. #givethanks
Day 5: I’m grateful for modern technology and the ability to see and talk to this handsome Elder every week. #givethanks
Day 6: I haven’t been blessed with many outward gifts (singing, dancing, speaking in public, coordination, art, baking, piano, performing, etc... like all of my amazing siblings) but I’m grateful that I learned at an early age that we are ALL given gifts and talents from our loving Heavenly Father. Visible talents are just as important as those unseen, however they may be more difficult to realize they are a gift from God. I have found most of my talents are “silent” and “inward” talents. Sometimes those are the hardest to see, but I have learned to love them and work on them and hopefully make a difference in the lives of those around me. #givethanks
Day 7: Last, but not least... I’m grateful for my #1! Who knew almost 23 years ago a blind date would lead to so many great adventures? I’m so grateful for eternal marriages. I can’t imagine living life knowing I couldn’t be with him for Eternity.
#givethanks
