I am thankful that no matter how uncertain tomorrow is, there is one thing that remains the same. God’s love and provision for my family is amazing. I am thankful for our family, friends – no matter how far away they are, our house, our two vehicles that are paid for, that even though the kids are sick we have access to medical care and medicine, our church, and so much more. So often, I am tempted to focus on what is wrong with my life rather what is right. I need an upward focus, instead of a horizontal focus to keep things in perspective.

Your last sentence is wonderful. That is such a great way to word the need to shift focus. I’m going to copy that and put it somewhere I am sure to see it a lot!

Well. Life does throw us curve balls. I can’t believe how many different states you’ve lived in during the past 18 months. You are an amazing woman for doing so with cheerfulness.
I love how you are making a conscious effort to handle this latest change with grace and godliness. I will be praying for your family.
With all of life’s changes…it IS so wonderful to remember that God is unchanging! Thank you.

Your post is very encouraging. It is so easy to get caught up in this life’s woes—forgetting the wonderfuls!
