Something to think about...

Good Morning!
I don't have much to talk about today! Nope, I'm not sick (haha), sometimes I just get tired of talking....and thinking.
So, I'll leave you all with a few thoughts to get you through the week. Most of us talk about how good God is, but do we really take the time to reflect on ALL the things he's done for us? I saw a sign the other day and it read:

"What if you woke up today with only the things you thanked God for yesterday?" 

Hmmm interesting!  Sure, we thank Him for his grace and mercy, for allowing us to see another day, etc. but do we thank Him for the small things?  I have been reading The Purpose Driven Life.  Yes, I understand many of you read this book a few years ago...don't judge me for just now tuning in.  Anyway, I absolutely LOVE this book! It gives you something to think about every.single.day. I try to keep my highlighting to a minimum, but that never works.  Here are some questions/thoughts to ponder on. Enjoy :)

• "Nothing in your life is arbitrary. It is all for purpose"
• I know that God uniquely created me.  What areas of my personality, background & physical appearance am I struggling to accept?
• "God specializes in giving people a fresh start"
• "You're only hurting yourself with your bitterness"
• To worry yourself with resentment would be a foolish, senseless thing to do"
• "Possessions only provide temporary happiness" LOVE this!
• "When you fully comprehend that there is more to life than just here and now, & you realize that life is just preparation for eternity, you begin to live differently"
• "When you use your life for God's glory, everything you do can become an act of worship"

Have a great week!
