“Each day provides its own gifts”. – Marcus Aurelius

Sounds cliché, but each day we wake up, i.e. being still above ground is a blessing. We all have days where we may feel like staying in bed, away from whatever troubles we must deal with that day. And some days are worse than others because the troubles can pile up and can become overwhelming. It’s on those days I try to think of at least one thing that will make it worth getting out of bed.

Talking to an old friend or one of my brothers usually helps me snap out of whatever funk I’m in. Hearing the voice of one of my children or seeing a video of my grandchildren will put a smile on my face. This past week, I picked up a repaired coffee maker that makes the best coffee I’ve ever had, and I have found myself eager to get up and make my first cup. It may seem silly, but even a simple thing like the latter can help get me going in the right direction.

When all else fails, I pray to my Creator to give me the will to face whatever troubles me, knowing that sometimes I just can’t do it all on my own. I take great comfort that He knows what I’m going through and has a way to guide me to carry on.

My prayer for all of you is to reconnect with Him and allow Him to carry you when you feel you can’t take another step.

Blessing to y’all!

Isaiah 43:18-19 & Philippians 4:13
