23 Affirmations To Kick Off The Year With A Heart Full Of Gratitude And Give Thanks:

For as long as I can remember, I’ve heard my mom say, whenever you pray, thank God first. No matter what you’re going through or believing for, give thanks.
-
To my surprise, last night, as we rang in the New Year, the host of the event stopped that huge party to say a prayer claiming all the good things for this year, and give thanks for life, favor, the things to come, the things God blocked, and the beauty of vision.
-
It was such a special way to kick off 2020. I’ve always loved the idea that so many of our blessings are the things unseen. Not just the manifestation of the things we believed for. It’s thankfulness for each and every time our guardian angels step in, and the Lord protects us from the things we thought we wanted, and protects our hearts, vision, and journey.
-
As we kickoff 2020, I’m giving thanks for both because part of giving thanks is having faith that all things at any point in time are working together for our good.
-
Before we get started, let’s set our intentions and get centered. Breathe in the good. Envision everything that you're thankful for right now in this moment. Pick 5 things and give thanks for them wholeheartedly. Breathe out the bad. Release anything that doesn’t serve you. Unhealthy relationships, bad vibes, grudges, disappointments, and unmet expectations. Bless and release. (Repeat x 3)
-
We’re only making room in our hearts and minds for an abundance of the beauty of our dreams this year.
