Most of the notebooks are filled with sermon notes, Bible studies or notes from Christian conferences I have attended. If I am going to retain new knowledge, I have to write it down.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was digging through my desk looking for an empty notebook yesterday afternoon when I came upon a small notebook I had acquired from a conference a few years ago. Thinking I could use it, I opened it up to find it was already full of notes, including notes from an exercise I was a part of at this conference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The journal entry was a list, and the first entry started with the words, \u201cI am thankful for.\u201d\u00a0 Following those words was a list, several pages long, of things I was thankful for at that time. I was thankful for prayers answered, grace and mercy received, and on one line, I was thankful for the ability to take in breath. I remembered where that entry came from &#8211; the instructor had asked us to answer the question, \u201cWhat blessing did I receive today?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have a tendency to take God\u2019s blessings for granted. We think God isn\u2019t doing anything for us but forget that we have the ability to take in air to breathe and use that air to speak His praises. We can breathe, we can move, and we can think all because of our God. His blessings are all around us &#8211; a fact that is not lost on characters all throughout the Word.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Psalm 23, David shares this revelation: \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life.\u201d He knew God\u2019s goodness was with him every day, even when his days were full of troubles. The same holds true today. God is with us always, blessing us in many ways. Let\u2019s be looking for those blessings and thanking God for them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Beth<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Bible Quiz<\/span>:<\/p>\n<p>Question:\u00a0 \u00a0Which two brothers does Paul use to illustrate God&#8217;s sovereign plan &#8211; one loved, one hated &#8211; before they were even born?<\/p>\n<p>Answer:\u00a0 Jacob and Esau (Romans 9:13)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration-line: underline;\">Storytime: <a href=\"https:\/\/kinshipradio.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ABCDEFG.mp3\">ABCDEFG<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kinshipradio.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Just-one-more-thing_040925.mp3\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Just One More Thing<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Day Is It?
