Beautifully written, madam dimples :) The goal is to stay thankful. Always. It's so easy to use the timing of others to gauge ourselves. I feel you! (your 2024 comment about love finding you since everybody seemed to be getting married this year or entering relationship) but then I remember God doesn't live by 'crowd' but by what He believes His best and when the timing is right. When Pharaoh was releasing prisoners aka the Baker and the Butler, you'd have assumed it was Joseph's time too. (Genesis 40). Joseph even implored the Butler to to remember him. It wasn't until 2 years later Pharaoh's dream propelled him to the spotlight and the timing was just RIGHT. Perfect Even. We may think somethings should happen at a certain timing, but when it's God's timing, it just fits.
Glad you're choosing to focus on the positives because it's so easy to get drowned by everything that didn't go right. But what about the sense/wisdom gained on what to do and not to do/allow next time? What about the chance to do something right and be purposeful? What about the opportunity to see a new day alive and well. For this we stay thankful. Xx!
Gbam!!! A whole sermon you dropped, sis. I've read this about three times, each time, slowly. You pointing out Joseph’s story makes so much sense. I'd never seen it that way. Wow.
“The goal is to stay thankful.” Absolutely. Now that I think about it, I need to revisit the gratitude checklist you gifted us in January. Thank you for always, sis. I appreciate your being in my corner. 🥹💛
I loved this ❤ it's so heartwarming and understanding. It's as if you described how this year for me, but as you said it not time ro bring ourselves down but focus on enjoying the present and planning for the future. Lots of love 🤎
You're not alone, sis. I feel like that too many times. We all need little pockets of timely reminders. Thank you so much for reading. I'm thrilled by your love and support for me and my work!!!
Also, I stan along with you in anticipation🤣. Your gift is on fire, cooking🔥.
