The question is why... And isn't that always the question? "Why is the sky blue, Why isn't my husband as nice to me as that man is to his wife, Why can't my kids behave like that"...Why, Why, Why!!! Why do we always ask why. Is it because we are selfish or just plain curious. What I notice is that we can never be pleased with what God has given us in life. Which I think is a problem that I have. I'm always wondering why. I feel like God has shown me something today, something very important, something so simple I hardly ever think of doing it. Why not just stop asking why and enjoy what God has given. We take things for granted way to much. What we should be doing is sitting back and soaking in the beautiful sky the Lord has made for us, and look at our spouses good traits and qualities rather than constantly focusing on the bad, and just raising our hands and praising God for giving us the opportunity to raise our children.
My challange to anyone who reads this is to spend the next day in praise of what you've been givin. Take an extra minute to look at the new flower blooming on the plant outside your house, and look into the eyes of your children and just swim in the everlasting love they give you in their eyes. I don't mean to get deep or anything, but this has been waying on my heart all day, and a fight with my husband made me really step back and look at everything I take for granted everyday. Tonight I made a cake with my daughter Zoe. After everyone had been served their peice and we were all done she came up to me, hugged me and said "Thank you for making a cake with me." I almost teared up. That 30 minutes I spent with her in the kitchen made her whole day, and I can't believe how much I put off this thing or that thing that my girls bring to me everyday with little things like doing the dishes, or the laundry. In the long run, that stuff just doesn't matter...........
Have a great day, and God Bless.... |
