This week, a weariness i rarely have experienced before has left me tired.
Not only physically.
I realized that I am tired of:
– false campaign promises (like c’mon, when a flyer tells me that the Liberals will cut child tax benefit from millionaires, and we stopped getting it $90,000+ before becoming millionaires, hullo?!!!!)
– companies continuing to call even when we tell them we are on the do not call list & will close our accounts if they keep calling
– when you can’t get a straight yes or no answer to your question, when all the proof is clearly there and has been for quite some time
–when people make a big deal out of a molehill, so much so what really matters become hidden in the process
On these kinda days, its always good to review your thankful list.
I am thankful for….
LIFE:
Without it, I would be missing out on all the blessings I have!
WORDS:
Without His, I wouldn’t have come to be.
The ones He brings me to keep me, no matter what the season. The ones that spark hope & joy on the dreariest of days.
The ones which I sing to Him in thanks for those He songs over me.
COMMUNITY:
Without it, I wouldn’t be here.
Each hug, word of encouragement, free latte, ride to & from work, covering my shifts when I need time off, listening to me vent, praying for me
HOPE:
Without it, i wouldn’t want to be here. Because each new day He blesses me with is filled with a fresh clean slate!
Instead of fixing my thoughts & heart on wearies me, i choose to let what needs to go go, and cling to what adds life.
To give Him thanks more than I whine.
To remind myself if the blessings of a life spent with & gifted from Him.
