Default T-Week Challenge for All of Us...Can we do it?

Ephesians 5:4 Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.

What would it look like if I ONLY spoke words of gratitude the Sunday through Saturday (one week) of Thanksgiving. If I went so far as to look at a pile of laundered clothes that awaits my folding and putting up, a job I normally hate, and instead think and speak out loud, “God, thank you for these clothes, for providing covering.” When my kids are arguing with one another, “God thank you that they have voices that work and you are shaping them towards independence of Piper and me, give them reliance on you.” If every time next week I see a person, I tell them why I am thankful to God they are in my life.

What would that week look like and feel like. I am going to try my best. I will post my successes (by God’s grace) and failures (by my own flesh) next week as time allows.

Care to join me?

Blogged about it Here. I'm changing mine to Monday through Sunday, cause that's how my brain thinks of one week, start to finish.
