Walking A Mile

















I walked to Church, from our car again, for the fourth Sunday now.  I am tired of walking!  How can I say that, when it is such a miracle, to be able to walk again. 

Some that never saw me walk were surprised that I was walking.  What do I say?   I am so tired and the van is not working.  Grrrr!  How could I say that?

I mummer and complain, when I should have been thankful that I am able to walk again (with a walker).    My cup overflows and I am complaining like a spoiled child. 

I am so blessed and I need to be thankful for whatever I am able to do.   Remember this, when you want to complain.

We are blessed to be able to walk. That is for sure! But sometimes, it is hard to remember that when we are forced to do so! I am sorry that your van is not working! I pray that the Lord leads makes a working van available to you soon! :)

Yes, I try to remember this every day! Some days it's oh-so-hard.

Sometimes we just need to set down and count our blessings.... God is so good and when we look around us we can always see His glory. Praying for you. God bless, Lloyd

Sometimes things that should come naturally are so difficult and we lose sight of our blessings. You have accomplished so much. You're entitled to feel frustrated and complain. Just don't let it take over your life and who you really are. I'm so proud of you.

That is awesome you are up and walking! We should count our blessings before we complain. Great advice!

I wanted to thank you for stopping by and joining my blog. Your title is so true. But you have to say there are days when we say it could always be worse it sometimes bites you in the rear. At least that is what I have been experiencing. I was tested years ago for MS. Put through a few test. Not sure he knew what he was doing which is why I stopped seeing him. Now that I am going through so many test. They will be checking me again. As I have had so many issues with things that also point in that direction. It is a scary thought. But I see that I have found a positive and brave spot. Thank you for finding me.

Amen, my friend! Complaining is so easy to do. It takes self control to stop & think instead of complaining. Thank you for that great reminder!
