I have been slacking on updating my blog. I honestly have been really busy but I do need to update more!
I am thankful for God and his many blessings. I sometimes wonder why he has done so much for me. I guess at times I look at myself and think of how unworthy I am to have this relationship with him.
I know I fail him but as humans, don't we all? I am thankful for his mercy and forgiveness that he freely gives to us. God has been so amazing to me!
I look back on some of the hardest times I have been through and realize that he was there with me every step of the way. Even though I thought I was all alone, he was right there beside of me!
For that I am ever thankful!

Thankful Tuesday: My Job
I decided to start a Thankful Tuesday in my blog. Every Tuesday I want to write about something I am thankful for. So here it goes...
For my first Thankful Tuesday, I want to write about my job. I am very thankful for the job I have. Even though at moments it can be very hard and sometimes even overwhelming, it is still a blessing.
I love to care for others and to know that sometimes you are their family only makes your job more worthwhile. I got to talk with a resident one day who has no children nor does she have any family left. She told me that our nursing home staff is her family. I almost cried because sometimes you forget those little things that matter most to the residents.
I am also thankful for the fact that I even have a job. So many people are losing their jobs in this scary time in our country but I still have a job that pays decent and gives me more hours than I can handle at times.
I know quite a bit of people who has lost their job in the last year due to the economy and it is so sad. I am so glad that I don't have to think "Where is my next meal going to come from?" or "How am I going to pay for my electric bill this month with no money?"
One thing for sure, God is in control and he can bring us out of a hard situation. I am so thankful to know (even though at times I forget) how loving and gracious the Lord is. Everything that I have comes from God. He has given me more than I could ever need or want!
