As I first sat down to write today, I was set to write about some experiences that my family is going through that really frustrate me. I was focused on being angry about some situations that are really discouraging and are messing with morale in my family. And then I looked outside. What a glorious day!! The sun is shining, the temperature is amazing, and the sky is blue. Sometimes God puts things in my path to get my thoughts back on track. This beautiful day is one of those things. While I am still discouraged by those issues, I am so thankful to be living this life. I am blessed to have my health, to have eyes to enjoy God's creations, and to have family to share this life with. Perspective can make all the difference in the world, and God quickly gave me perspective. I have so much to be joyful about, and I REFUSE to let others steal the joy of my family. No matter what happens with our jobs, friends, finances, etc., God is in control. If he cares enough to create such a beautiful world, then I need to sit back and let him work in each of these situations. His work, both in the world and in my life, causes me to be speechless!
Now, I need to find a "field trip" to be able to get outside a bit and enjoy this weather :)
