thankful for that?

"...give thanks in all circumstances" 1 Thessalonians 5:18

mistakes
disappointments
missed opportunities
dead ends
brokenness
humble moments
denied promotions
lost treasures
redos
trials
weakness

Can there be thanks in such a list?  Thankfulness isn't just about the obvious. 

Just like turkeys, blessings come dressed in many different ways. God knows what needs to be done. He doesn't waste anything that touches our lives... working all things to our good and His glory.
Be-lieve.
Be-thankful.

Thank You, Father, for the blessing of today.

friend, we are loved and chosen by God,
