Its Sunday and I’m grateful for the blessings of the week left
behind. I am grateful for all the little and big things both good and bad which
crossed my path. How can we manage life when there are ups and downs, positives
and negatives, and outcomes which our minds and hearts tell us we are unprepared
for? Ahh, but there is growth from all our experiences!
Hmm.
There was a Sunday when I sat in a house of worship and the
pastor quite passionately advised the congregation that he did not want them to
place any coins or red notes ($1 currency is red in my country) in the offering.
He chided the congregation for being inconsiderate to the persons who had to ‘labour
to count the money’ and even if they had to miss a week while they saved for
their offering they must do so.
Hmm.
If it does not make sense to me then why accept the nonsense
given?
Many times, we receive gifts and tokens of appreciation which,
may not suit our likes or desires. The person giving decided that we are worthy
of their blessings and in giving they have shared consideration and
appreciation.
An attitude of gratitude is much more than saying, “Thank
You”. It is really appreciating the giver, however big or small. If our leaders
are challenged with the little things, how can they lead us to and through the
big rewards.
For the upcoming week, and the days ahead I challenge you to
find the little things left behind, the smallest of problems and issues that
appear big, and look at them differently. Seek out the blessings and rewards of
‘the small stuff’, because the ‘big wins’ start with the little things we may
pass over.
Thank you for staying and walking the race of life. Don’t go
too fast because you may miss the view. Till we meet again – online!
You are appreciated!
