It's Another Beautiful and Blessed Day. Let Us Be Grateful and Give Thanks to the Lord.

The world is a depressing place today. So much so that I have become so wrapped up in the idiocy, idolatry and corruption we are cursed with that I tend to forget how blessed I am to live in the USA despite the evil that surrounds me.

I went for a walk early this morning near the Port of LA with at least 50 container ships anchored off the coast and felt depressed and hopeless seeing that, but then watched the sunrise. It reminded me that life itself is a blessing and there will always be a new day full of beauty and new opportunities.

I knelt in the sand, bowed my head, praised and thanked the Lord, and felt my spirit renewed which reminded me that life is not perfect but the Lord always promises us new day.

Curious to know what other FReepers are grateful for

Remember that things are not falling apart. They are coming together.

Every day of life and knowing that He is in charge.

A very uplifting post! Thank you FRiend!

I am very grateful to God for another year of life, on this, my 59th birthday.

Hard to believe because God promised me that I would never get older than 25. ;)

Seriously, as you indicated, every day is a gift. Even with a decrepit old fool in the White House.

Five stellar grandchildren. Solvency. Good friends. Good health. The certain knowledge that evil will eventually and permanently be eradicated.

Yes, looking around our country now, looking at the evil and immorality that permeates this great land and the diabolical criminals who dare to enslave us is difficult to take in and remain focused on what's good.

God is good all the time, all the time God is good, Amen.

Amen. I am grateful to my Lord God for the wonderful years he has given me, no matter what follows. He didn’t promise us easy lives, but I suspect He gives us what we can handle in an effort for us to find Him. If everyone lived like a billionaire, Heaven might be very empty.

I read the blurb and sometimes take the quiz regarding the picture on the Bing page when my computer opens each day. It reminds me of unique places, people, animals, history, etc. around the world, and that not everything is politics, violence, hatred, etc.

At the moment I’m grateful for your post.

I’m grateful for the sunrise and the sunset every morning and evening. When I look at the sky and watch daylight creep in and the beautiful sunsets I feel like I’m part of the whole universe and I find that comforting.

I’m grateful for the roof over my head, for a well stocked pantry, for not feeling anxious or depressed.

I’m grateful for my bed, and for all the creature comforts I have.

I’m grateful to God and for all of His blessings.

How beautiful!

I am thankful for a 70 degree day with sunshine and breeze allowing us another couple of hours on on our screened in porch after-and before-trios of too cool and rainy Fall days.

Yet another blessing despite our ugly world.
