Day Twenty-Five.
Verse: "Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe." Hebrews 12:28
Yesterday my Mom's brain surgery went really well and she is doing good! Praise God!
I know sometimes, when we are struggling, it's easy to blame God rather than praise God. I know for me, I struggle with being thankful due to being in so much pain from fibromyalgia and arthritis. But I also know I have so many blessings to praise God for.
Here are some things I am thankful for today:
1. My Mom's brain surgery was a success.
2. Mom is doing good after her surgery.
3. I have a very supportive family who loves me and helps me.
4. I got to see my Mom in the hospital today.
5. My cat Little cuddled with me last night!
6. I found some gloves on Amazon that really help my arthritis pain in my hands.
7. My neck and back heating pad really helps my back pain.
8. My cat Spike cuddled with me last night.
9. I am seeing a new doctor soon to help with my physical pain. I really hope he can help me.
10. I have a very close relationship with God!
11. Jesus died for me and rose again! (John 3:16)
12. Jesus heard my prayers for my Mom!
13. I have so many amazing readers and followers who love my books (like you who are reading ;) I am thankful for you)
14. My book: "Jesus Saves Daily Devotions" is being published and will be out on Amazon soon!
15. Even through my physical pain I have stayed in college and I am still doing college.
16. I have all A's in my college classes.

17. In the fall, I will be officially be a sophomore in college!
18. Even though I am still struggling with physical pain, I am alive today and sharing the word of God!
If you struggle with being thankful, start writing down a list everyday of things you are thankful. When I started my list, I thought I wouldn't have many thing to be thankful for but it turns out I have 18 things today to be thankful for. You don't have to have 18 things to be thankful for, if you only have Jesus to be thankful for, He is enough!
We can always be thankful for:
God will love you forever. (Psalm 136:1)
God will never leave you. (Hebrews 13:5)
God will comfort you. (Isaiah 49:13)
God will help you and always be there for you. (Psalm 121:1-2)
God is always faithful. (Psalm 33:4)
God keeps His promises. (Deuteronomy 7:9)
Jesus died on the cross for YOU! Jesus rose again and defeated death! Now we can have a personal relationship with God and go to Heaven! (John 3:16)
As my Dad always says: "you find what you are looking for." So instead of focusing on our problems, we should be focusing on our blessings and on God. We find what we are looking for: if we spend time looking for things to be thankful for, we will find them!
I know it's much easier said than done. But if we will start making lists everyday of things we are thankful for, start reading the Bible everyday, and start praying everyday. It will make a world of difference. I will do it with you!
So let's start praising God Today!
Prayer:
Dear God,
I know right now I am struggling to be thankful. Help me as I start to make lists of things I am thankful for, spend time in Your Word, and spend time talking to you that I become thankful and grateful. Even when I am struggling, I know I always have you to count on and be thankful for.

The Kind Devil
Five veteran players of the old-fashioned but outdated VRMMO game, Orge's Bone, meet in the game for one last time before leaving forever. As real life friends, they were torn apart by certain matters, and now decided to say goodbye in the way they know best; a free for all battle royale. However, little do they know that fate has a twist to spin. As they fight it out in a folorn map, they stumble upon a secret teleport gate. Out of curioisity, they all enter it. They find a world more graphicly advanced than the current number one game, and NPCs that really don't act like they should. The game settings are similar to Orge's Bone; there are no levels, only physical strenght gains, which is gained by killing monsters and completing quests. They treat the hidden world as their greenhouse– a place to retreat when the real world treats them unfairly. But after a while, they discover no everything is as it seems– that the hidden world is far more dangerous. Michael is a cultivator whose goal in life is to change the tragic martial world, where killing is like breathing, into a land of peace. It will center a lot around how he'll change the perspectives of those around him, and how he tries to draft more cultivators to his cause, starting with the toughest nut to crack, the ruthless, bloodthirsty and easily-triggered Rector. Last but not least, with how he is met by the greatest tragedy and is forced to make the hardest choice.

RE:Hero
Many lifetimes ago, Roy had been offered a choice after his passing: to make a deal with a Goddess where he would help her save countless worlds from certain doom in exchange for immortality. Fearing death and the unknown that lay beyond, he took the opportunity to be sent into realms of fantasy, sometimes succeeding in his mission, other times failing, trapped in a cycle of starting from the beginning over and over again. Each reincarnation left him a little more broken, and eventually, he found himself sent to worlds where there was no great evil to fight. No doomsday looming on the horizon. Yet he still prepared himself for the worst each and every time, until he finally broke and gave up, only to find the Goddess did not allow slacking in the sacred duty he had been tasked with. Now, he seeks to free himself from his bonds. How many more worlds will he need to traverse to find the power to end the cycle?
