It is Right in Front of You

Even when I want to throw a tantrum, stomp my feet and scream at the top of my lungs at something I want, I know God has a plan for me and I have to remind myself that He is in charge. 

Several times in my life I have thought about how unfair life is. I know I am not the only one. Haven't we all stomped our feet, maybe pouted a little and cried because things didn't go our way? It's only when we stop and look around at all the things that aren't fair that we did receive. Sometimes we get upset over the things we want and don't get and other times we forget about the things we get that we didn't ask for and definitely didn't deserve. 

It's time we focus on what we have rather than what we don't. What is given yet not deserved. What is right in front of us. It could your child, your spouse, your job. It could be your health, your opportunities, your friends. Find your peace. Whatever it is for you, love it-enjoy it-embrace it! 

God's plan for our lives is bigger than we can ever imagine but for us to realize it, we have to stop looking for something else. Everything is right in front of you, so find peace in the every day. 

Psalm 32:8 “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.” (NIV)
