same day, different outlook

how come some days i hardly "see" God around me because my mind and heart are so full of ME - things I need to get done, things i'm worried about, things i'm complaining about, ME

and other days i see God EVERYWHERE, in my kids' smiles, in the rain, in a friend's kind word

the days could be identical in circumstances, yet feel so very different depending on my perspective.

i need more "God" days and less "me" days

Hi Courtney! I am just now putting away all my Christmas cards and saw the link to your blog. I love it! What a blessing to see your whole family at my Dad's service. And how did I miss the fact that #4 is on the way? Congratulations to you. Half way there, right? XOXO Wendy

Exactly what my study has said this week - psalms 123 and 124 talks about looking up to God's face. That posture will keep us focused on the right things!!!
