Time to get back on track.

Sorry it's been awhile since I have been on here.  I don't know how many actually read my blog but to the few of you out there I hope you had a wonderful holiday and your new year has started out well. 

I am just blow away every day by the awesome works God does.  With life always busy we don't take enough time to give God the credit He deserves for everything He does for us.  We wake up and don't thank God for giving us another breath, another day to serve Him.  We eat breakfast and don't thank Him for providing us a job that provides means to purchase food.  We are warm so we are in a house with electric.  Others in the world are waking up cold and hungry with no running water or electricity.  We are so blessed.  I am not saying that we never take time to thank God but I think it should be constantly on our minds.  Always have a heart of thankfulness and gratefulness.  This weekend at church I was blown away again by how God works through all situations and how He takes people out of their comfort zone to do His work.  My sister-in-law said "The last couple days I have learned so much about being a part of a community within my church.  When people are unable to carry out their part, someone is right there to help and the work of the church carries on even in the midst of sudden difficulties or illness.  People step up and make things happen.  I am so blessed to be a part of LCC".  I think its easy to see God in the big things that our attention is naturally drawn to.  My challenge for you today is to see God in the small things.  When we start to look for those situations, we will be in a constant state of thankfulness and be able to look at the positive side of situations more easily.

Until next time!!

Grace and Peace
