This week is short and sweet. I’ve been feeling thankful this week (and always, but somethings are more specific for this week) and have been realizing that God’s blessings are often waiting there for us to unlock if only we take the first step where he leads.

10. My pup, Penny and the constant happiness and joy she brings to my life every day.

9. My Bible Study Fellowship small group – I am so glad I got placed with you ladies.

8. My church family.

7. New connections with new people or people I’ve known for a while, but haven’t connected with.

6. Opportunities for income while unemployed.

5. Friends who are always there for deep conversations and hilarious moments.

4. Family who is looking out for me and cheering for me from 3 states away.

3. Unexpected quick replies to emails.

2. Conversations with new and old friends at church on Sunday that were encouraging and came at just the right time.

1. God’s unconditional love and blessings that are daily if only we seek to find them.
