I’m grateful.
I’m grateful for the opportunities that I’ve been given. I’m grateful that I get to use the gifts that I’ve been given and for those who continue to help me use them responsibly.
I’m grateful for the people in my life. Every single one of them. I’m grateful for those that I can call friends, who believe in me, who push me to do and to be better. I’m grateful for those that challenge me to make more of a difference. I’m grateful for, and to, those who speak into me and those that let me shine.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to dream and pursue. I’m grateful that I’m not given a blank check. I’m grateful for accountability, for being urged to think more deeply and analytically, and for criticism that helps me grow.
I’m grateful, so very grateful, for second chances. For grace made real and tangible, visceral and visible.
I’m grateful for the love that is shown to me and the love that I can show to others.
I’m grateful for a faith that matters. I’m most grateful to you, God. I’m grateful that you created me, that you redeem me, that you love me and that you are with me.
Thank you for today. Be gracious to me and give me another day to be grateful.
