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.

Thalia Prince
For as long as Thalia can remember she's always felt alone and isolated. Her parents always kept her hidden from the outside world and would never let her do anything on her own. Now she's finally grown and has gotten a small taste of freedom. But when Thalia's Parents aren't who they said they were Thalia will have to forget about the world she's always known and learn how to live in a new one. Not only will she have to discover new creatures and beings, but she will also have to learn to live life like royalty. But what does her Mystery girl have to do with this?! ******** "Trust me, I understand the emotional dilemma you're going through. For the longest time, I wondered why all these people had to die and why I had to be a part of this battle. But now I realize that the best thing I can do for these people is help lay their souls to rest by ending this battle. So that their families and future generations won't have to go through this too." I look at her, noticing the downtrodden expression on her face before she looks up at me and smiles, trying to mask her pain. But she couldn't mask it. Because I had already seen it. And for the first time, I recognize how alike we truly are. Of course, I've noticed how guarded she was with her emotions but that could've been for a multitude of reasons. But now that I've seen this side of her I can't help but think that maybe she's just as lonely as I am. I reach out and silently link my pinky finger with hers trying to show comfort in a subtle way. I want her to know that if no one else will be, I'll always stand by her side. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

My Vampire (Book Three)
She got me into this mess. She had to play around and get us both captured. That stupid fucking vampire. My pack will notice that I'm gone. But these men are good at covering my scent. But I know they'll find me.I hear her gasp again and thrash around making her chains jingle around the bars we're both kept in. God knows what they're injecting her with but I'm glad they're not doing the same to me."Give her the next dosage. She can take it" the older one says and I look away as I see them plunge the needle again into her arm. She screams and an unfamiliar sound comes to my ears. My wolf awakens at the sound as well and I stand to look at her.She's shaking like crazy and gasping as if she could even breath in the first place. It can't be? They shouldn't be able to reverse....my thoughts stop when she sits up and screams as she looks into my eyes. The dark irises I came to know over the past two weeks go from black to blue. Her heart starts beating. And my wolf calls for his mate.
