I'm sat on the sofa of my flat, spinning around worries about the shift of work I start at 2pm this afternoon. I don't enjoy late shifts and I'm not actually sure I'm any good at the job I have recently moved to. And I worry what the consequences of that will be. Will I be fired? Will I have to leave and forever be explaining why there is a short term job on my CV? How will I pay the rent if either of the first two happen?
However, in light of what I have just written in my previous post, I felt that I should write all the areas in which I am greatly blessed, so I focus on what I have than about what I don't have and can't obtain by worrying.
A wonderful wife whose love never stops amazing me.
A dedicated family, both immediate and now extended who are supportive and just great to be around.
A great set of friends who have stuck with me through thick and thin,bringing with them many hours of laughter and inspiration.
An inspirational church family, not just located to one church or denomination, but who challenge and push me to be more Christlike in the way I approach everyday life.
I feel that I have gone down this road on a blog before, but I think there is nothing wrong in sometimes writing up again what is true- that I have so much to be thankful for, that should take up more of my time than worrying about what I am not, or do not have.
I am blessed.
