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.

Ave Maria......! Happy Birthday Mama Mary....... We love you....... Ave Maria...!

Mary is the supreme masterpiece of Almighty God and he has reserved the knowledge and possession of her for himself. She is the glorious Mother of God the Son who chose to humble and conceal her during her lifetime in order to foster her humility. He called her "Woman" as if she were a stranger, although in his heart he esteemed and loved her above all men and angels. Mary is the sealed fountain and the faithful spouse of the Holy Spirit where only he may enter. She is the sanctuary and resting-place of the Blessed Trinity where God dwells in greater and more divine splendour than anywhere else in the universe, not excluding his dwelling above the cherubim and seraphim.

I declare with the saints: Mary is the earthly paradise of Jesus Christ the new Adam, where he became man by the power of the Holy Spirit, in order to accomplish

He/she bears witness to the truth of the faith and of Christian doctrine. He/she endures death through an act of fortitude." - CCC n. 2473 Martyrs do not just die for the Catholic faith. They live the faith before they become martyrs.
