Blah Blah Blog


This week I feel like things have been raining down on me....like when it rains it pours... I think it's OK to sometimes feel down on my luck. Well, this week I do.

Without going into much detail, I feel like God has given me several big "gifts" to deal with this week. I'm the type of person that doesn't handle too many big stresses very well so I'm finding this week a wee bit of a challenge. I've been praying for reassurance, confidence, strength, encouragement and happiness in my heart.

My mom always says to thank God for the things that upset me so I can be even more thankful and appreciate for all the wonderful things that make me happy. While that is a wonderful theory it's very hard to do. I have to stop and close my eyes several times a day and say, "Thank You God, Thank You God, Thank You God. I can handle this. I can do this. I'm strong enough. I'm OK. This will be OK. I will come out of this OK."

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL!

I have so many blessings in my life. I have so many things and people to be thankful for. It's easy to lose sight of that when people, bills, challenges and other crazy things get in the way...guess that's why it's called life.
