Day One Hundred and Seven/ Thanksgiving Special
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! In honor of Thanksgiving here is a devotional on how to be thankful:
Tips and tricks on how to be thankful:
"Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:18
1. Be focusing on God and not our problems
How?
By seeking God through prayer, worship, listening to Him, and reading the Bible. As you spend time seeking God, you will grow closer to God and the more you will know about God.
Also you need to change your mindset to stop focusing on your problems and circumstances and fix your eyes on God. You change your mindset by seeking God and asking God to renew your mind. God will renew your mind as you spend time seeking Him. Because when we draw near to God, God will draw near to us. (Psalm 125:1-2)
As one of my favorite authors and speakers Joyce Meyer says: "We all have a part (in a relationship with God). God has a part and we have a part. We have to do our part (by seeking God) because God will not do our part."
2. To Count our blessings
How do you do that?
Make lists everyday of things you are thankful for and praise God for the things on your list.
Here is my list:
I am thankful for my family and friends.
I am thankful for my pets.
I am thankful for being able to go to college on campus.
I am thankful I have good grades in college.
I am thankful for being able to crochet blankets and give them to people in need.
I am for my ministry: "Jesus Saves Ministry" and how well it's growing.
I am thankful for my podcast: "Chronically Caty" and how well it is doing.

4.God freely gives us: joy, love, rest, peace, freedom, grace, healing, happiness, and so much more. (Psalm 125:1-2)
5.God is always there for us. (Psalm 121:1-2)
6.There is nothing we can do that will separate us from God's love. (Romans 8:38-39)
7.God is always waiting for us to come into His loving, healing, comforting, encouraging, and loving arms .(Psalm 125:1-2)
8. We can freely talk to God anytime we want because of Jesus. (John 3:16)
Prayer:
Dear God,
Help me be thankful no matter what. Help me fix my eyes on you and not my problems. I praise you because even when everything is lost, I still have you.I thank you for all that you have done for me. I am thankful for Jesus dying on the cross for me because you love me so much. I thank you that now I can have a close relationship with you. I praise you for your goodness, love, and mercy.
I thank you for Your Son and all my many blessings.
In Jesus's Name, I pray, Amen.

When Athena Laurent returns to England after two years of absence, she's tasked to find a Pack, somewhere in the North. Her mission will bring a group of people together who - when the time was right - were always destined to meet. But how can they trust, like, or even love each other when their first instinct is to lie? "Can you imagine it? Three werewolves, a vampire, a human, a hunter, a werecat, and a hybrid in one room? We thought we would destroy each other, but we couldn't have been more wrong." Although Athena thinks she's destined to be alone forever, Fate has other plans. In a journey full of surprises, she must recognize friend from foe. Who can she trust? And who is determined to bring her down? Follow Athena and her fellow outcasts. They will have to join forces to achieve their individual goals. They have never met before, but Fate has connected them since birth.

The Flame in the Forge (A Slice of Life Isekai LitRPG)
Thrown into a world he doesn’t recognise, Niall Vendra has to adapt, learn and fight to survive. Physically, emotionally, personally. If Niall wants to save his family, then the man he was needs to transform. Surrounded by Minotaurs, Fae and Magic, Niall will have to reinvent himself as both a warrior and an artisan. Growth won’t be fast and it won’t be easy, but with patience and hard work, Niall can earn the Skills, Abilities and Classes to battle his way to the top. The Flame In The Forge is a LitRPG Isekai/Portal fantasy. You should expect slice of life with conflict and an overarching mystery to be solved. Niall will be both a crafter (primarily, but not exclusively, as a blacksmith) and a fighter. There won’t be a harem. But don't worry, there will be both flames and forges! I should be clear that while this is very much LitRPG, it's story led and I have tried to make it feel believable. So, for example, the first blue box doesn't appear until chapter 6. I hope that the payoff is worth it. Compared to some LitRPGs you may find the pace rather gentle at times. There will be some periods where it feels like Niall is eking out every level and others when, for good reasons, he makes a significant leap. My goal though is to give you a satisfying story, so that dictates when and how Niall's stats and skills change. I can reassure you that I fully intend for Niall to become immensely powerful, but I want you to feel like he has earned every level in a realistic way.
