Many times we believe that we need something major to happen for us
to have a reason to celebrate, but that's not true. Every morning that we wake up is a reason to
celebrate. It means that whatever didn't
happen on yesterday, it’s a new day and a new chance for it to happen
today. Celebrate seeing those you love,
celebrate having food to eat, celebrate your job, even if you hate it, because
it's providing income for you to get what you need and propelling you to what
lies ahead.
Today I celebrate new opportunities, family that I love dearly,
friends who became family and this life of mine, it's been nowhere near
perfect, but it's what God gave me so I'm going to do my best to enjoy every
minute of it!
Now it's your turn...what are you celebrating today? What has happened that lets you realize just
how blessed you truly are? Share, I want
to hear and it might bless someone else's life and remind them of the blessings
they forgot. I look forward to hearing
from you.
Sometimes we get so caught up with the day to day that we don't stop to realize how blessed we are despite what we may be going through currently. Throughout my life I had never though of myself to be a naturally "smart" person. I knew how to play the game of education so I just did enough to get by. I never wanted to go to college. I was convinced that I would be able to academically compete with my counterparts and was on the verge of failing out of my school. Today, I celebrate the A I received on my first essay assignment in my doctoral program. I celebrate this because it is proof that God will never leave or forsake us! We must remain faithful to his word no matter how bleak we may feel, stay the course, and put in the work that he knows we are capable of so that we will be prepared to receive his blessings!
