My BFF

Today's gratitude veres off from the norm.  Today I'm grateful for my BFF.  Here's one of the reasons why.  She emailed me the following this morning.

 

Today is going to be a good day ~ I don't care what happens, the Lord and I are claiming this as a good day.   Period.    Work irritations?  Don't care ~ gonna be a good day.   Traffic problem?   Don't care ~ gonna be a good day.   I gained a pound?   Don't care ~ gonna be a good day.    Bad meal tonight?   Don't care ~ gonna be a good day.   I've got so much to be thankful for ~ I should never have a bad day!
