Humble Beginnings.....Thankful Thursday

 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
 

 

God knows how truly thankful I am not only this holiday season, but each and every day I am blessed to live.....Thanksgiving is a time to gather with family and friends, and to remember how blessed and thankful we all are.  I know that I have come a mighty long way in life, from growing up with little to nothing, to being a struggling single parent.  Now as I look back on those times, I realize just how GREAT God is and how much gratitude I truly feel in my heart.  Each and every day I count my blessings and I never let a day go by without saying THANK YOU at least 40-50 times out loud.....I also take the time each morning to make a list of things I am thankful for and I read over that list throughout the day.  It helps me to get through the day and it actually helps me to have a great day!

 

So many times we tend to take for granted just the little things....I've been guilty of doing the same thing.  As I think back to when me and my son fell on hard times and money wasn't just tight, it was non-existent, I was almost evicted out of my apartment, my son was kicked out of daycare because I couldn't afford the payments, didn't have a car and didn't know where our next meal was coming from.  Humble beginnings....

 

 

 

 

 

When I decided to step out on faith, work extra harder, and believe in God for a breakthrough, things immediately began to turn around for me.  I received a promotion at work, not only just one promotion, but promotion after promotion ~ raises on top of raises.  I got married to a loving and supportive man.  I was able to purchase a brand new car, never been used, but brand new off the lot and now its paid for in full!  Thankful, gratitude, humility.....words cannot express how gracious I feel to have overcome such times.  Luckily my son was young during those days and he cannot remember, but I remember...I will always remember....And I will always be grateful for what I have accomplished and for that which I will accomplish in the future.  Most importantly, I will always be thankful for those humble beginnings which made me who I am today...Humble beginnings which shaped and molded me into to the ambitious, never taking no for an answer woman I call me...

Wife, mother, worker, go-getter, thinker and believer

Until next time....Stay Beautiful & have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
