I need to be more grateful

The reason I started this blog is pushing me to come back to it. Adversity makes you stronger -- right? It tends to make me a much stronger complainer...

Heavenly Father has blessed me so much. Looking back over my life, I can see no period where His hand was not lifting, guiding or gently correcting me. I need to see those blessings at the time, so I'm going to try to return to this blog regularly.

Today, I am so very, very, very grateful that Heavenly Father put me amongst people who would become wonderful friends almost immediately. He knew how much I needed that and He took care of me. He also blessed me with wonderful friends for my children. I never thought I would be lucky enough to find another place where I felt as supported and loved as I did in Oklahoma, yet, here I am, blessed again in like manner. I am so grateful.
