1st day of the month (Gratitude Journal)

Wow, can you believe it’s already August 1? That means we’re only four months away from Christmas! 🎄 I’m so excited for the holiday season, but first I want to take a moment to thank God for this amazing day. Here are some of the things I’m grateful for today:

  • First of all, thank you God for the gift of life. Waking up today is such a blessing and I’m so happy to be alive. You are the source of my joy and strength.
  • Second, thank you God for the comfortable place I live in and having access to clean water. I was able to take a bath twice today and sleep in a well-ventilated room. I know not everyone has this privilege and I don’t take it for granted. You are the provider of my needs and wants.
  • Third, thank you God for the blessings you gave me today at work. I and my team were able to finish five job numbers today and hit our daily quota. Thank you, God, for always guiding me in my work and giving me wisdom and skills. You are the leader of my career and success.
  • Fourth, thank you God for Aaron, who bought some donuts and toasted siopao for our snacks. I’m beyond grateful for his generosity and kindness. He shared his blessings with us and made us happy. You are the giver of good gifts and friendship.

Lord, thank you for your blessings and divine providence. You always surprise me with your grace and love. I’m so happy that I received my monthly commission and was able to pay some debts. Lord, thank you for today and every day. You are the reason for my gratitude and happiness.

Blessed Sunday (My first Online Gratitude Journal Entry)

Hello, everyone! I am so excited to share with you that today, July 30, 2023, I have decided to start my online journal. This is something new for me, as I am not really used to writing and journaling, but I was inspired by the homily of reverend Monsignor Santos a while ago. He said that gratitude is the key to happiness and peace and that we should always thank God for the blessings we receive every day. So, I decided to start my online gratitude journal, where I will jot down all the things that I am grateful for these days and the days ahead. I hope that by doing this, I will be able to appreciate more the goodness of God and the beauty of life. For my first entry, I want to express my gratitude for the gift of life. I am grateful that I woke up today with a comfortable bed in an air-conditioned room. I am truly blessed knowing that I have a roof over my head and that I took a bath three times today. I am also grateful that I was able to eat the food I love. Lord, thank you for eve...
