My family often teases me because I wake up in such a good mood, ready for the day, little birdies sitting on my shoulders while singing, woodland creatures flocking to be near me...okay I made that last part up.
Everyday is such a blessing to me. Each morning is new...as are the mercies of God. I just can't help it! Life is incredible! It hasn't always been like this though. I had so many years filled with fear, sorrow, insecurity, bad decisions, misery, yet even then I tried to put on a good face so my girls wouldn't know.
You know how the scripture says 'he who has been forgiven much, loves much'? I think that applies to me. Life is a precious gift and I do not want to squander it. I want to live each moment...breathe in deep the mysteries of God. The Lord has blessed my life so much. I am content. What else do I need? Yet He still blesses me, everyday. My cup truly runneth over, and it is so amazing.
Now, don't get me wrong. I still get in a bad mood sometimes, and I'm still battling fibromyalgia which makes me sleepy almost all the time, but I refuse to let it get me down. One day it might...but for now, I will praise the Lord for each and every moment of my life.
