Today, I choose to be more grateful. For me, being grateful is one of the traits we recipients tend to overlook. Sometimes, in our strong desire to follow Christ in obedience we forget that His grace can and will cover all our flaws and wrongs. In fact, I thought being thankful is limited to receiving (only) good things. I used to think that I shouldnt be grateful for failed in certain things, heart aches, dissapointments, etc. But the more I try to see things clearly, I learned we should be grateful in everything! (James 1:2 -- Count it all joy!) Seeing the good in everything has made me see God in all things. And thats pretty awesome. Looking at every situation with keen and eager eyes, trying to find the best of it has become a project for me lately. The Project Thankful. (#projthankful) Like whenever I am tempted to be impatient, I am reminded of how Gods patience with me would look like. It must be amazingly long! So for today and every day after this, I am choosing to be thankful not just with big things but also with the little ones. And I humbly pray that for every failure, Hell remind me of this resolution. Glory to you Oh LORD!
