It really is difficult to be thankful in times of hardship and distress. I try to remember what Job went through during those times.

I think one reason we forget is because we are just so darn busy (and it takes a little time to reflect on how blessed we really are). A number of years ago, my daughter and I decided we should try to balance out our prayer life by adding more “thank you’s” in with the “pleases”. Having gone through cancer, I can honestly say we really DO have lots to be thankful for; even in tough times )
Great post!

Thanks for posting this. I think we often forget about the most important things in life and how we should be thankful for those things. I know it is hard when there is so much going on in our lives. My husband and I recently went through a bankruptcy due to a failing business partnership with Butterball turkeys, and neither of us are making much money to afford an awesome Christmas for our kids this year, but we are most thankful that we at least still have our family and that no one has any long-term health problem.
