203. Today I am grateful for a brain

Today I am grateful to have a brain to enable me to learn, think, feel and store memories. I would not be able to function without it.  

202. Today I am grateful for setting aside quiet times

I am grateful for the quiet moments I can set aside for myself during the day or the end of the day. It is during these times that I like to study my scriptures and ponder and reflect on the things that are of most importance.

201. Today I am grateful to have a warm home

Along with having a home to live in to provide shelter for me, I am also grateful that it is warm. I am grateful for a heating system that keeps my house warm and for those who are trained to properly build and insulate homes.

200. Today I am grateful for pens and pencils

I either have at least 5 pens in my purse or none. This has made me realize how essential they are. I am also grateful for the advancement of writing utensils which has enabled us to preserve records, stories, information, etc and to increase literacy.  

199. Today I am grateful for this song

I recently wrote a post about my gratitude for good music. Today I listened to a song that I found really touching and was surprised that I hadn’t heard it before. It’s called “I saw God Today” by George Strait. This song is a wonderful reminder that everywhere we look we can find evidence that there is a God.

198. Today I am grateful for the bible

I am grateful to be living in a time where the Holy Bible is accessible to many people across the world. In my association with or observances of people, I have noticed that there are many who will say that they believe that Jesus lived but do not believe in his divinity. I am grateful that the Bible does testify of the divinity of Christ. I am also grateful for its evidence that that God does love his people and that he is a God of miracles.

I also believe that the Bible is the greatest history book we have and a wonderful self-help guide. The Ten Commandments, The beatitudes, and teachings from the greatest teacher are all found in this book.  

197. Today I am grateful for Saturday morning breakfasts

On Saturday morning I like to make myself something for breakfast other than the usual cereal or oatmeal. Usually I’ll make waffles, French toast or an omelet ... yummy!
