Grateful

That's written in 1 Thessalonians 5:18. "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus". It's pretty clear that we should not only be grateful when we are in bliss but also during rough times. Why? because that's God's will. I am still learning though because admittedly when you are hurting the least you think of is to give thanks di ba? but if we give thanks even in not so good situation somehow it makes the burden lighter.

So today, I am grateful for all that is happening in our life (yes even with the bumps in the road-that are sometimes painful. For sure it will make me stronger. And of course, I am even more grateful for all the blessings the Lord is showering us everyday.

-food in the table
-electricity
-protection
-our job
-friends

and for that hope that someday soon we will be having our own house, we are grateful that we can dream of the house we like, the furniture, even the comfortable cushion for chair, the kitchen, lanai and all.

Thank you for being able to dream and hope.

Indeed. I am grateful to you Lord.
