Here’s a great way to practice gratitude in 2016

My husband and I were just talking.

He saw something on Facebook and we’ve decided to implement it for next year.

We are going to write notes about the good things that happen to us in 2016, put them in a big jar, and then next New Year’s Eve we will read them.

And of course, I will have to decorate the jar. Right? Hmm, chalk paint, washi tape, ???

I think this is a great idea. It’s not going to be an every day thing so it won’t be overwhelming next year. But won’t it be great to have written documentation of all that God has done for us?

Gratitude is a great way to worship God. 

You might want to try it, too.

God bless and Happy New Year.
