BLESSINGS

In the past year i have stumbled and I have grown in amazing ways. It seem like at times, I can see myself from the side. It's been happening more often this last year then ever before. God has given me this opportunity see myself in a completely other way just to build myself in to a a better person. Seeing my gifts, passions and failures has transformed me to being patient, loving and the biggest one, THANKFUL!!!
How often do people look at their life, house, children or marriage and thank God for what he has given them? Is it a blessing or is it a burden? I have found myself looking at life as a burden more then a Blessing for so many years...Please don't judge me on this one sis's... I know that I have so much to be thankful for. But I couldn't look past my selfish desires and take a closer look at my beautiful life, house, marriage,BODY (That's a whole other topic), and family and friends.
God has changed me so much and I am so thankful that I gave in to his plan for me that I could be freed from this depressing state that I was in. I just want you girls(and Boys) to know how thankful I am for my life that I have. Sometimes it's necessary to share that with others. I have found that it helps me to take a double take of my on life when others share their feeling and blessings. (Louise you kicked me in the but on that post on differences.)
God Bless You All...
