on repeat this week: Best News Ever
…yeah, you’re so not alone: the battle’s hard… but here’s the secret to winning: “Stay alert, with your eyes. wide. open. in. gratitude.” Col.4:2MSG
No matter what’s coming hard these days, the thing is:
No amount of regret changes the past,
No amount of anxiety changes the future,
And any amount of gratitude changes the present.
Any amount of gratitude changes the present & wins back some ground — even for one very small thing.
So that’s what we’re doing here today: simply being grateful for that one small thing… & one more small thing… & one more small thing — just taking back ground one grateful step at a time till the battle is WON.
Gratitude wins our wars. Because gratitude isn’t only a celebration when good things happen; Gratitude’s a declaration that God is good no matter what happens. #1000gifts
[excerpted from our little Facebook family … come join us each day?]
That’s all for this weekend, friends.
Go slow. Be God-struck. Grant grace. Live Truth.
Give Thanks. Love well. Re – joy, re- joy, ‘re- joys’ again
Share Whatever Is Good.
