“Life flies by, doesn’t it? Time roars by with apologies to no one... One of the dearest lessons of wringing the absolute joy and wonder out of life is the ability to maintain a thankful heart through every season. A lifestyle of thanksgiving has the miraculous power of turning trials into triumphs and morphing pain into purpose.
Tomorrow has not been promised to us … and today is the greatest gift that has ever been given... We are creatures of eternity, and so this life is not all that defines us, fulfills us, or renews us.” - Carol McLeod, YouVersion devo
As I read this devo today, I was reminded of the importance of focusing on the blessings, and giving God the frustrations, of life. Trusting His plan - whether or not I agree or understand - gives me a freedom that is priceless.
I had to post these pictures because of all the blessings in our life, this family that God has given us is so precious to me! I am so thankful for these people. 🙂
“Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.” Psalms 90:12 NLT
“He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
