...get what you want.
But if you try sometime,
you just might find,
you get what you need.
The Rolling Stones
***********************
In these uncertain times,
with a shaky economy around the world,
like the song says,
we can't always get what we want.
We may have to cut back on spending,
make do.
We think about life more
about what is really important.
We take the gift of each new day as it comes,
thankful for so many little things
we might have taken for granted before.
Life is what we make it.
We can wallow in our lack,
or we can soar with wings of thankfulness and joy
in all that we actually have.
From 'The Good Book' are the following thoughts:
for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
Let your conversation be without covetousness;
and be content with such things as ye have
***
May we all take a minute or two to think about our many blessings.
We actually have more than we think we do.
In any given day,
we do have what we need for that day.
Walking in my gardens I am thankful
to the Great Creator,
for His many blessings,
His daily care,
His Love and Mercy.
