Days of PURPOSEFUL Thankfulness – Day #32

Note: Refer to day number 1 (July 25, 2015 post) if you don’t know what this is all about.

Confirmations. Have you ever believed that you were supposed to make a certain decision but you felt you just needed a little extra assurance that you would be making the right decision? Like me I’m sure you’ve had those times when you THOUGHT you were so right about your decision but in hindsight you found that it was the wrong path. After the fact you could even see clearly why it was the wrong path. They say hindsight is 20/20. If we follow wisdom, there comes a point in life where we build discernment skills. And for those of us who have learned (and maybe still learning) to follow God’s leading we really don’t have to depend on any externals for knowing what to do. But in reality sometimes we all miss it; we fail to get it right what to do. It is in times like these that I am so grateful for what I call God’s little hints or reassurances. Maybe you had this unexplainable feeling to call someone but you felt uncomfortable doing it because you hadn’t talked to them in awhile for whatever reason. Then along comes someone mentioning that very same person’s name. Or maybe you apply for 2 different jobs but you don’t know which one is the right one. One of them happens to fall through, but you get the one that seemed to have been created just for you. These are little gifts you can’t buy anywhere. And you can’t earn them. Nope…treasures for which to be thankful.
