Day 12

Quote: "I thank God for my handicaps for, through them, I have found myself, my work and my God." -- Helen Keller

Journal Prompts:
Helen Keller was one of my childhood heroes and still is today. Of all people, she could have easily found an excuse to be bitter and ungrateful. Instead, she chose to rise above her trials and live a life of meaning and gratitude.
Her "handicaps" allowed her to be an inspiration to the world and a message of hope in the midst of trying circumstances.
What are your "handicaps" or trials? Do you let them drag you down? Or do you use them to lift & inspire others? Do you thank God for your trials? Or do you blame him and ask "why me"?
Take time to think about these questions and how you can show gratitude for the trials in your life. Record your thoughts in your Gratitude Journal
