Sometimes or more often than not we complain about our life. Our present situation. The things that we cannot afford to buy or the things that we don't have. And compare ourselves to others for not being this and that.
We are so focused on the things that we lack rather than those that we already have. Those little things that we thought are not so significant or important. Like being able to wake up in the morning and see another day. Or being able to be with our children despite the fact that they are so hard to handle at times. Should we not be grateful seeing them well and being able to fiight with their siblings? 😁 I mean those childish arguments that eventually ends up being friends again with each other. Hear their laughters and cries. 😁. We are sometimes clouded by our worries that we forget to appreciate and be grateful to things that matters most.
Personally, I am grateful for the time that I have with my family. Like being able to walk and send our children to school then pick then up after. Watch them ride their bikes and sweat. The privilige to be there for them with my husband is a great blessing. Having a loving spouse who is always there for me is a rare find. I am truly grateful. I, too have my moments of complains but I do not let it rob me of the grateful feeling that I am able to do what I do.
Photos below were taken when our children were younger.
Time flies quick. Children grow so fast. Some point you were cuddling them in your arms then all of a sudden they are all going to school! Before you know it, other opportunities to be with your loved ones are gone.
Let's be grateful and have faith that things will work out for good. Give thanks to everything that we have and can do. See the good in every situation. Though it is easier said than done sometimes. But our Savior's promise is sure, He will be with us and will help us as we move forward. Trust in His timing and let him prevail in our lives.
Thank you for reading and have a great day!
