Accepting what God gave me
|
Accepting What God Gave Me.... I think the hardest thing about accepting my limitations, is remembering, what I had before. I have found, myself looking back to how I was before, I was ill. I too often want to look at what I had before, instead of being grateful for what I have today. When I got sick I thought the world ended and why was I given this dreadful disease. I had to learn to appreciate what I have and let go of what I had in the past. It is still easier said then done. I have learned that God has given me lots of gifts because of my illness. I have learned to appreciate when the sun rises, it rains, birds chirp, and much more. I’ve learned to appreciate the time I have with my daughter and family. Learning to accept the gifts God gave me, even if it wasn’t my plans, is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Today I accept what God gave me:
He gave me the sun He gave me my pets He gave me the moon He didn’t give me what I wanted But, he gave me his love And his love is like a river It always keeps flowing He gave me the trees He gave me the water And the air to breathe And the ground to walk What did he give me most? A family to love And friends to have And most of all is a life to live. And I’m thankful today ©all rights reserved
