He’s been my shoulder to cry on, always there to make me smile, tell me off when am going in the wrong direction. I love the way he alters my plans and makes me follow his own, which inevitably is always better than mine. Am not talking about the average man, he doesn’t do mediocre, he is a king and I am privileged to have him in my life. My best friend, father, counsellor, teacher etc all wrapped up in one The Prince of Peace.
As I walked to the station this morning I was thinking retrospectively and suddenly realised that I’ve spent so much time worrying, asking and wanting everything that I forgot to enjoy and thank God for what he has given me.
We ask he delivers, then we ask again and he delivers and we just get caught up asking and wanting that we often forget to thank him properly and enjoy what he has given us.
God has been good, and I promise to thank him openly for all he did, is doing and is yet to do. Thank you Lord for my life, without your guidance I really don’t know where I would be today. I’ve spent so much time asking for the world and forgot to thank you for all you have done.
I have decided to take time out to enjoy all the great things that he has given to me, and thank him properly for it all. I couldn’t have asked for a better start to the week, so far it’s been a fantastic day! Discover the talents and gifts that you possess, learn how to offer those talents and gift in a way that most benefit others. Every day this week I will take time out to thank him openly by posting a blog.
On a lighter note someone said expect the worst so you don’t get disappointed when your expectations aren’t met. But it’s contrary to my belief after all Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. Do I expect the worst at all times which means being pessimistic just so I don’t get too disappointed or do I just have faith? HELP!!!
By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.
By Faith Abraham, even though he was past age- and Sarah herself was barren- was enabled to become a father because he considered him faithful who had made the promise
So I choose the latter - Ask and have Faith, without doubting that God will deliver in his own time.
Today am thanking God for my Family.
Have a good one all
