After hearing of the tornadoes, and not too long ago all the floods, it can't help but make me appreciate my blessings even more.
The other day I was standing at the kitchen sink with the window open as it rained. I love to have the window open on a rainy day. It was in this moment that I realized I don't really stop and appreciate those little blessings God has given me. I get so caught up in my to do list or my screaming kids or my messy house to really...just... stop and soak in just how fantastic it is to have this life.
So today I choose to be grateful for clothes to iron, dishes to wash, lists to go over, and the opportunity to serve my family. It amazes me how God chooses to breathe life into us and then give us a promise of an eternity spent with him. I feel so humbled by his power and love. I am but a vapor who doesn't know the tomorrow. Today I choose to bask in his forgiveness and blessings.
James 4:14
