What a comforting thought this is to know that I am not in charge of what is going to happen and that there is a plan and purpose for my life that has been set out since before I was born! Now I don't always like that I can't see what the plan is but I am starting to realize that I need to enjoy where I am in life because that is exactly where I am supposed to be to make me the person He wants me to be.
This is the start of some intentional journalling about the positive that is happening in my life. I have gotten into a rut of focusing on the negative. In a book that I just finished it talked about the scarcity mentality and that is where I have been. Focusing on why I can't do something, excuses, excuses. I have made the decision to have an abundancy outlook. I can't expect other people's lives to be mine because I am not them. So let's start!
Joys:
my three girls and the amount that I love them and they love me unconditionally!
my parents and their willingness to help me whenever I need it, even if I don't realize I need it!
my faith, it has made leaps this summer and has led me to this new outlook about my life and what I have been given.
It was a good night! The girls helped clean the house and didn't fight to go to bed! We sat and read a story. Just the 4 of us on the couch. No TV. No other noise. Just them listening to me read a story and when I stopped, they begged me to keep going. What a great night.
I love me girls!!
