I think this book helped me differentiate thankfulness from gratitude. I originally thought this would cultivate thankfulness, but instead much of it focused on the greatness of God-- something we should all be thankful for! Less about me, more about GOD. I had put this aside for a little while, and then seeing my friend Cassie do hers with her husband reminded me to return to it-- and I kept going! Soon I was towards the end of the journal, and sometimes I would copy some Scripture into Spanish. because I am trying to become bilingual (something I haven't finished doing as of yet). It also felt great to complete it-- I haven't completed something in a long time, and making it to the last entry also made me feel accomplished! I wrote so many important things in this journal and now I feel a little loss that it's over! This journal became special to me and looking back at the (appox.) 11 months I used it, I've seen changes and reminders of what GOD has done! I've also become more familiar with different parts of Scripture and have written more to GOD! Thank you, cultivate people, and thank you to my friend Cassie Nolin for showing/encouraging me to get a journal last July in the first place! I would recommend this to any/everyone! ;-D All I have left is to continue translating some of this!!! ;-D ;-D
