Thankful for the Father
Today has been a rough day, but in spite of that, God has been reminding me of my blessings. It’s also been a test to see whether or not I will practice what I preach–to rejoice in all things. I don’t do it perfectly, but I am trying to incorporate that practice into the trying days.
There are a lot of things in life that I don’t see how any good will come out of them, and some things I expect there won’t be a positive outcome, but God has a way of giving grace beyond what you or I could ever imagine. If nothing else, trials cause us to run to the Father like we often fail to do when things are going well. And I am thankful for the fact that He will be by my side through every moment while I sleep, and He will still be here when I rise, ready to greet me and welcome me to a brand new morning. That alone is worth smiling about.
