I AM CALLING YOU... to a life of thankfulness.

I'm starting to feel like this devotional is redundant. Not that I mind in the least! I think it's a great to be reminded over and over again to be thankful and rejoice. Many of these life lessons we have been learning over and over again since we were children in Sunday school.

I know that my mind is dense and needs prodding to be reminded to be thankful. How often I forgot this lesson and find myself grumbling in the middle of, what I deem to be, lame circumstances.

When you criticize or complain, you are acting as if you think you could run the world better than I do.

This quote is what I need to remind myself of. I have NO desire to run the world. I cannot even run my household without complaint from the other inhabitants that live here with me.

God thank you for taking on the world so that I don't have to.
