Thanking God (Read first post)

[Scarlet_Teardrops]

I would like to try something.

God gives us so many blessings every day. And we often don't even see them. Well I'd like for this to be a kind of inspirational thread, and I'm hoping it will get us thinking about our blessings.

1,000

That's the number I hope we get to. 1,000 blessings.

Here's how it works. You post a blessing that God has given you, and you thank Him for it. The thread ends when we get to 1,000 blessings. For the time being, at least. I want to see if we can get to 1,000. I realize it will take some time. But I believe that is only because of how high the number is, not from a lack of blessings.

You can post as many times a day as you want. There is but one real rule to this. You can't post multiple times in a row. Somebody else has to post before you can post again. It doesn't matter if it's just one post. As long as somebody else has posted, you may post again. As many times as you want.

I really, really hope that people will actually participate in this. I feel it is very important to be thankful to God, and to share that thankfulness and the news of blessings with other people. It's inspirational and beautiful, and it helps reminds us of all the things God gives to us.

Feel free to post and talk about anything as long as you give a blessing. That way we can just determine the amount of blessings according to posts. Yep. heart

So...I will start.

I am thankful to God for all of you. You are blessings.
