Today I need to make a list of some of the positive things, the tender blessings of the last few days. I am feeling overwhelmed and super stressed with everything that is going on, I was going to make a list of everything that is stressing me out, but I can’t do anything about most of the things, so I need to focus on the positive. I was just going to write this to myself, but decided to share.
- My family, I am so grateful that I have a sister to talk to, someone that can stand by me, and someone I can work with as we work through the newest challenge in our lives.
- My husband – I am so grateful to have someone who understands me, who supports me and who loves me.
- A daughter that is maturing and learning – one who for the past few days has helped out more, who has cleaned the house and who cleaned up the kitchen last night, when I needed that help more than she even knew.
- A son who, though he is struggling, tries to make it, tries to fix his mistakes, and always shows me he loves me. Also, for the understanding that he was blessed with last night – his spirit was touched, and that is a great blessing.
- The understanding of eternal families, a concept that will help me to get through many of the challenges in life. The earthly challenges that we have are only a drop in the bucket of our lives, we will make it through. And as families we will spend our eternities.
- The knowledge that my Heavenly Father loves me, that he answers my prayers and the knowledge that I know that he answered our prayers by bringing Gilbert to our family, no matter how tough and ugly things get, I know that Heavenly Father wants him in our home and he will bless us to make it through all of this.
- The knowledge that my Heavenly Father is always there, to listen to me, that I can pour our my heart and he will listen, he will help me, and he will give me the strength that I need when I think that I am all out of strength.
