For your consideration….
We all have them everyday… from minute to gigantic…life challenges. Most likely we don’t ask for them or welcome them or appreciate them. But if we pause and consider life without them, we can be grateful for them.
Life challenges are nothing more than quizzes and tests to show us what skills we have and the ones that need strengthening. They contrast the easy and hard. Life challenges test our courage, determination and willingness to pursue and grow. Like any other exercise, life quizzes and tests strengthen us. As we work through them, we grow our resolve and enhance our skills. We earn new confidence.
While we may not ask for them, we can change our thinking and be grateful for the opportunities that life tests and challenges have afforded us.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take….
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Be grateful for life tests and challenges.
What made me smile yesterday….
-The sun.
-Lunch with my brother.
-It was hard to know how to plan getting him to the airport due to President Trump being in town. I think I could have done a better job of planning. He ended up with a longer wait time at the airport than I would have liked…sorry brother…. but he got home safe and sound.
-Catching up with Cathy.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
