surrender

On this Sunday I am simpy thankful. Thankful for all the blessings I have been given. Thanking God for providing me with a loving, wonderful family who I can always count on. Thankful to be healthy, and the ability to live the life others cannot.


Sometimes life gets in the way and I forget to count my blesssings. Sometimes I let me anger, frustration worries, etc. get in the way of all the amazing things right before my very eyes. Sometimes my vision gets cloudy. But then I am always reminded, I am blessed beyond belief. And I thank the Lord for that, and all that I have been given.

{So take you as You find me

all my fears and failures, fill my life again

I give my life to follow

Everything I believe in and now I surrender.}

Insecurities

Sundays are probably my favorite day of the week.

What is better than getting to relax, go to church {which I should do WAY more often than I do}, take a long nap and getting to slow down for two seconds from your busy week and most likely weekend to just enjoy the finer things in life.

I love em'.
Minus the fact that Jeffro leaves on Sunday's these days,
that kind of put a large fat damper on my love for them currently.


 
However,
today's message at church was a good Sunday message I really needed to hear.
Topic:  Insecurities.



"It's Always Something."

From your unwanted cowlick to the stain on our shirt,
there is always something that makes us insecure.


But God made us the way we are for a reason.
Unique.
One of a kind.


So instead of relishing on the things we don't enjoy about ourselves,
which many times leads to being negative towards others {at least in my world}....
we just need to love them. Take pride in them even.
And realize they make us who we are.



And instead of looking at other's to figure out who we are,
we just need to look within own stinking selves. Most people who judge and critque us don't even know what THEY think or who THEY even are.


I see myself too many times comparing myself to others.
Wishing I had "better this" or "not that".
Picking out stupid things I wish I could change about myself.
Why not be happy with who I am?
The exact person that I was made to be.
Seems a whole lot easier that way.


Just thought I'd share.
It's always a good message to be reminded of.
And need to remember it on a daily basis.


HAPPY SUNDAY.
whoop whoop
