I am very grateful to have had a prayer answered today.

For a long time, I had lost belief in the power of prayer.

Today i am grateful that i have something to fight for...I understood that i need something to fight for...I realize it has to hurt so that the bleeding can be healed, for that i say i am much grateful that today i got stronger and saw the light once again....I seem to see the light on the tunnel every day...
I love the Lord..grateful for this glow He puts in my spirit when i think of heaven's future blessings...

I am grateful to have worked out my frustrations at work. I had been pushing too hard and then I stepped back too far. Now, I have found my balance and a comfortable place for me.

I am working on getting into an attitude of gratitude and working on learning what this current lesson is all about..
I don't want this lesson again..
So I guess...I am just grateful again to remain teachable.

I am grateful today that I can find peace in the small things of every day life, the things that are around me all the time.

Nothing too profound here.

I'm grateful for Carol Anne. I'm grateful that we went food shopping and the whole cart really didn't cost that much. I'm grateful for the long talk with my partner last night bout the kids and making things easier for them. I'm grateful that I'm outa that funk I've been in. I'm grateful for the folks here at SR.

I am so grateful for online support too!

And, I am grateful that I seem to be easing into a change that's going on in my life, that I thought would be much harder.
