I am having to read my own words and practice them today…the ones in that last post about being thankful and how it changes our perspective and attitude?

Almost without fail, I will blog about something and then very soon after have to practice what I preach, like my own words get bounced back at me, or like I’m being tested to see if I will live what I’m learning.

Lord, help me to keep a thankful heart today.  I can feel the enemy prowling around, like he always does, seeking a way to devour.  Set my eyes on you, be near me today.

Let all that I am praise the LORD; 
      with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. 
 ² Let all that I am praise the LORD; 
      may I never forget the good things he does for me. 
 ³ He forgives all my sins 
      and heals all my diseases. 
 ⁴ He redeems me from death 
      and crowns me with love and tender mercies. 
 ⁵ He fills my life with good things. 
      My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!  Psalm 103:1-5 NLT
