Hi Rags to Stitches friends.
I am Lindsay, the girl behind the blog,
I am so excited to be guest posting for Alissa today.
We met in real life a few weeks ago at Blog Sugar,
and it was so fun to hug her in real life.
Today I want to talk to you about feeling thankful.
You see,
I have spent far to much of my life comparing myself to others.
My house isn’t BIG enough.
My car isn’t NICE enough.
I am not THIN enough.
My daughter isn’t OBEDIENT enough.
I am not RICH enough.
I am not RELIGIOUS enough.
And then one day I woke up and realized I have spent far too much time wallowing in jealousy.
I have so many blessings in my life that I have been taking for granted.
Instead of focusing on what I do have,
I spent my time focusing on what I don’t have.
I was missing the little blessings in life.
The ones that were right in front of me.
Want to know what changed my heart?
Jesus!
Trusting in him and taking time to THANK HIM for what I do have.
Reflection.
Thanksgiving. 
Are you living each day as though it were your last? Are you thankful for the blessings in your life?

It was so wonderful to be here. I’d love it if you stopped by my blog and said hello.
