“This morning I read a little post that said this..the worst kind of people to be around are those that complain about everything and appreciate nothing..Amen..and I thought about that and that’s so very true..Amen..and again we all have something to complain about at times..Amen..because we are human..we are not perfect..Praise the Lord..but to continually be unthankful and ungrateful well now that is just another whole story..Amen..because especially if we are children of the most high God..Praise His name..Amen..but again I considered it and I said really it’s all about how we see things in our lives..and how we perceive our lives..Amen..all the way we choose to look at our lives..Amen..because this is what I’ve learned in my life and that is this..if you wanna be thankful and grateful and truly be blessed way down deep in your heart..then you look around at your life..not at the things you buy with money..and not your job title..not your college degree..but truly look around and see all of those things in your life that are free to you..Praise the Lord!”

“And I say this thinking about the blessings and the goodness of the Lord in our lives..when it comes to first off our salvation which is free to whosoever will..Romans 10:13-15..Praise the Lord..but further on..how about family and friends..Amen..how about the beautiful creation of life..when we get to go outside and look around at all the things that God has given us so freely to enjoy..nature at it’s finest..Amen..but I have as well seen that when you get in a routine of murmuring..and complaining..well, you stay there in your life..and sometimes without fail..you just continue in the same pattern..because that’s what your used to..but if we consider ourselves and our lives..and see us for who we are and work on us..I think all of our lives would be better..and we would be more blessed and thankful..as far as seeing it..Amen..because others can see Gods goodness in your life..but if you fail to see it yourself well..you will live a miserable life..even with having everything..but when you’re eyes are wide open..and you look around with the fullness of Gods grace and Gods goodness..and you are thankful for everything..Ephesians 5:20..then you live a great life..a happy filled..joy filled..great life..Amen!”

“For you see every good and perfect gift comes from our Father above the bible says and He has no shadow of turning..James 1:17..Amen..for He may not always give us what we think we need in our lives..we may not have all that we may desire..but again we do have all that we need..we do have roofs over our heads..we do have clothes on our backs..we do have food to eat..water to drink..fresh water at that..Amen..we do have a bed to lay our heads in at night..we have love..we have shelter..we have so much provision..it is unreal..Amen..so today please don’t look at what money can buy in your life..but consider all the other true blue wonderful blessings that God has given and daily gives to each of us..Amen..He is a wonderful heavenly Father..and without Him I can’t imagine how life would be..Amen..but with Him..He is so good and so faithful to us His children..so thank Him today..love Him today..and be grateful for every gift..every blessing that you do have in your life..and renew your mind and renew the way you choose to view it..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
