I got this idea from a new blog I have stumbled across today, My Chocolate Heart (fab title!). Click the link to Jennifer’s lovely blog. I will make this a regular slot on this blog, for a happy homemaker has a heart which praises God in all things, big and small, and which also praises God when the going gets tough! Read ahead for my praise points this week, and join in yourself if you feel inspired

• I praise God for my family, who are a constant source of joy to me, even during the tough times, the tired times, the tragic times. They never cease to inspire and amaze me!
• I praise God for my home and kitchen, and just having a corner that I can call “mine”. Making a house into a home is a great joy in my life, and not everybody has the opportunity.
• I praise God for my conversion and journey in the Catholic faith, which enriches and enlightens me like nothing ever has before. I love being a Catholic!
• I praise God for the many holy men and women who have gone before me and written their thoughts in the form of books which have become my friends and companions. I am especially grateful right now to St. JoseMaria and his book “The Way” which is daily inspiring me and spurring me on to greater heights of faith.
• I praise God for my Doctor who has lookied after me through a few health trials big and small over the last two years, and for the medication I am on right now which means I can tolerate just a little bit of chocolate and a tiny cup of coffee each day without leaving me in dreadful pain from this peptic ulcer!
• I praise God for the weather right now. Ok, so it’s raining, but I am pretty sure there must be some farmers somewhere who have prayed for rain this week, and I am glad God is blessing them!
• I praise God for my friends ~ I don’t have many, but those I do have are loyal and faithful, and support me often in prayer. Lord help me to do the same.

What’s yours?
