I know it's been a long time since I have written, but I am back and hope to be more consistent in my writing. Well as you have read tonight's blog is going to be about being Gratefully Blessed. As most know we all have little things that can drive us nuts. I am really good at letting the bigger things roll off but letting the little things get to me or grate on my nerves. So over the last few weeks when I have been feeling the little things start to change my attitude I have consciously made it a point to find something in that moment to be blessed by. I have a difficult co-worker and we don't get along really at all, so changing my perspective on our working relationship when she does the things that grate on me I find a good attribute in her and say something nice to her and remind myself of a little blessing that came out of that encounter hence being Gratefully Blessed. I have noticed when I do this she is nicer to me also and those little things do grate on my nerves as much.
Today I was reminded how God takes care of me and all my needs. It has been an exceptionally long feeling week. Being crazy busy at work and taking care of household things. I have been working more hours then normal and not really supposed to go over my 40 hours which is great for me but sometimes stressful as one day a week I spend the majority of the day unsupervised and always have more hours than normal. Well this week being no exception know that this is going to happen again and having more hours than normal asked if it would be possible to leave a little early today and it was granted. I had the wonderful opportunity to get new tires and have my brakes and alignment checked and an oil change. It was so wonderful, but towards the end of the outing I was getting hungry and just ready to leave, letting the little things grate on me. So a nice older gentleman was sitting next to me and we started talking. I had the chance to share the blessings God has bestowed upon me over the last few years as I have been through lots of not so great stuff. It changed my outlook and brightened the day of another who was waiting long periods of time for their vehicle too. Plus I got to share Jesus and God it was an awesome experience so I will say I am Gratefully Blessed and wouldn't change anything that has happened to me since it brought me this far and with Gods plan I will go farther than I ever imagined. So when life gets tough and you are feeling grated on take a breath and think on the little blessings and be Gratefully Blessed. Have a great night y'all and I will write again soon.
