Having only a few days left in Minnesota I’ve been doing my rounds of saying goodbye. On my way home tonight I was driving and when I saw a stop sign very close to my house it made me STOP and think about all the blessings I have in my life and how blessed I am to have all the people in my life that I have. Thinking about these blessings I’d more important than we realize. Being grateful for people and events in your life are so important to appreciate the memories that you are creating with the people around you. Remember to keep your eyes open and don’t miss out on the adventures and blessings in your life. Often times people forget to do that.. including myself. 

Ex: for me my biggest blessing is that I am able to go on this amazing adventure called the world race. But before or even everyday it’s that I have a roof over my head, a family that loves me unconditionally, amazing friends that I know will always be there,  people that can help , etc to be a better Christian,  a better follower of Jesus. For me those are some of the most important things in my life, but often times we over look those people and we only remember to thank them when a birthday or holiday comes around… especially thanksgiving. 

 My challenge to you is if you happen to be reading this and aren’t bored just yet is to sit down take even 2 minutes and just think about the blessings in your life and you will be amazed as to what the Lord has offered you even in just one day. For everyone blessings are different things depending on their lives.
