Being Greatful

Last night as I thought of the working week ahead of me, I felt a bit discouraged because I am not entirely happy at my work place anymore.
I started wishing it were the weekend already even though the weekend had just finished.
 
This morning a family member of mine went to work and their contract was terminated. It was not expected and caught this family member by surprise.
When I received the news, I sat at my desk, starring at my computer with tears in my eyes and silently said a prayer. I said "thank you Jesus for my job. My attitude is not always of appreciation but Lord, I appreciate everything you do for me"
 
In life we do not always appreciate what we have and we tend to complain too often about what we do not have but every day there is someone out there with problems greater than ours, someone wishing to have the small things that we take for granted.

Take a minute out of your time to thank God for all your blessings, great and small.
Waking up this morning and being able to see another day is such a blessing. How many times do we wake up in the morning, and forget to thank God for being able to see another day?

Once again, my eyes were opened to the reality of how quickly God can take things from our grasp when we do not appreciate the little things he gives us such a job.

Be greatful for what you have and give thanks for all of what we have cometh from the Lord.

Stay Blessed.
