How many times have you been blessed? If you have an actual number then you need to reevaluate what you consider a blessing. When it comes to blessings you cannot be grateful for only certain things. In life everything is a blessing, even when bad things happen each event in your life is a gift that we should be grateful for.
If you have faced struggles and made it through then it is a gift because you are now stronger for it. If you are still facing struggles then be grateful because when it is over you will be that much stronger.
Every struggle every trial and every event in life is a gift to be grateful for because our life itself is a gift. Part of being grateful is taking care of everything you have been given, whether it is as important as protecting your family or as simple cleaning your living room. Being grateful means cherishing the gifts you have.
Many people including myself forget to take care of the things we have been given, usually because we are wanting something new so bad that we forget the things we have. Something I have slowly been remembering is that God will give us what we can handle and if he cannot trust us with what we were given; then how can he trust us with something new?
Take care of the gifts that you were given, be grateful for them and when the time comes God will bless you with greater things when you least expect it.
Remember, there are many things to be grateful for, so instead of looking for things to be grateful for, be Thankful for everything.
