Life, God, and Gratitude

Life has been life this past week and God has blessed me enough to be able to live it on life's terms.  Nothing earth-shattering (at least in my sick mind) has been transpiring.  I have been doing the day to day stuff of being a child of God, mother of two, wife of one, and friend to many.  I could complain...like how my husband is slacking off on helping me around the house and my kids' bickering drives me crazy...but I guess I won't.  I will instead make a gratitude list and then leave you with a beautiful video of a presentation of the Prayer of St. Francis. (It is short...so take a look :)

I am grateful for:

• God's grace, love, and mercy
• family
• friends
• pup
• home
• emotional security found in making conscious contact with God, my Higher Power
