Yep that's what I am learning about!!! Being Thankful for what I have! I am blessed...I can just get a bit distracted by my attitudes!! The other day I was home and everywhere I looked I saw something wrong with our house. I was getting so frustrated that by the time Trev came home from work I had in my mind already put the house up for sale and was planning on moving!! Then the next day was totally opposite...I was think all about what I was going to do in the garden as well as different inside ideas. But what I am really working on is attitude. What a joyful (not) daily issue we have to deal with constantly! Somedays I suck at my attitude, and I usually don't remember until after the rotten attitude that I could of changed it! It is probly one of the most hardest things to do change your attitude. But I am working on it and practise does make better!
So our newest reno inside is we are changing the kitchen floor that I ripped up...yeah after lots of ideas, disagreements, we have decided to laminate the kitchen and Living room with a dark brown wood look. I think it will look really sharp!! And it is half the price to laminate then to tile or put lino down and we can still do two rooms!!
So yesterday I came across a free single ikea bed in excellent condition, so we picked it up for Justice....we got new bedding...He is so proud!! It is so cute.
So today I also finally got up early...7 am.... wow I read my Bible ( which is an amazing accomplishment!!) I had a quiet time....it was good, I got the verse James 4:15
15 What you ought to say is, “If the Lord wants us to, we will live and do this or that.”
I have been talking about doing many different things, so it was cool to read that "if the Lord wills..we will do..." Not" I am going to do this...I hope you bless me for it.".....then we strive, work extremely hard, and wonder why we are so tired, so exhausted, so done, it has become a chore.....we have jumped ahead of ourselves and not waited.....
The words I felt God say was "wait".
wait means to....
1. to remain inactive or in a state of repose, as until something expected happens (often fol. by for, till, or until)
2. (of things) to be available or in readiness
WAIT
They that wait in the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall run and not grow weary, walk and not faint!
When we wait for HIm.....there is peace, there is vision, there is abundance, there is life!!
Lets wait on HIm this week ...lets expect HIm to do great things though us this week. Let's be at peace!
Love ya all
be blessed!!
