PRAISE GOD FOR THE GREAT BIG STUFF

If you see the messes others make, praise God for the great big stuff....that your eyes can see.

If you overhear discouraging words, praise God for the great big stuff....your ears still hear.

If you pinch your hand in the cabinet door, praise God for the great big stuff....you can still feel pain...lepers can't.

If your boss is, again today, grumpy and impossible, praise God for the great big stuff...you are evidently employed.

If you are sick and tired of picking up after your spouse, praise God for the great big stuff...your back and knees and hands and arms still function.

If you are bored, thank God for the great big stuff....you have a mind sharp enough it waits for a challenge.

Don't miss the glory of now because you veer onto a side road of complaint as well as indifference.  But if you do...thank God for the great big stuff that you remain young enough to return to the road of God's great big stuff.

I needed this today! Some people you can never please, but they cannot rob you of your joy if your heart is always grateful. j
