the flip side

Thursday August 20th, Ephesians 5: 20 At all times and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father. One of the true joys in life is to live in a state of blessedness. To be able to look around and truly see that all that you have and all that surrounds you is a gift from God and as a blessing in your life. In that state you can even seeing a blessing in some of the things that do not seem so good, the hard times, the struggles and yes even the pain. Not that everything is a blessing from God, but sometimes, just the ability to make it through today in spite of all the rough terrain is the blessing. Call upon the Lord in everything in your life, and even if your life does not change around you, your perception of it will. After a while the woe is me gets really tiring, even if it is my woe is me. So instead of living a woe is me life, trying living a blessed is me life, in many cases it is simply the flip side of what we have been focused on all along, the side with beauty in it.
