I was reminded of a lesson I learned a couple weeks ago. Praising God is SO IMPORTANT to my (and I suspect most others) mental health. A couple weeks ago, I felt compelled to just thank Him for everything. So I did. Thank you for my shoes, thank you for this motorcycle, thank you for how beautiful the sky is, thank you... Its been a rugged couple days. REALLY rugged. Beyond BELIEF rugged. Nearly beyond my ability to endure rugged. And I was reminded again just a minute ago of the same thing. THIS time, I was prompted to thank HIM for the difficulties I am currently facing. Thank you for how hard this is. Thank you that I have to go through this. Thank you for the lessons I have to learn. Thank you for wherever this takes me. I know that my atheist friends will say this is largely the power of positive thought, and perhaps there is a bit of accuracy in that thought. But as a believer, I think eer is more to it than that. I think it is important to BE thankful. Genuinely thankful. And to recognize that no matter the circumstances, He is there; he is sovereign; He cares; He loves. Thank you.
