Gratitude Day 31: Nothing is working

in gratitudeday31 •  7 years ago  (edited)

So I woke up this morning....
Feeling sad, dejected, lonely and all the bad feelings you can ever imagine 😔....

Then I remembered I had to put in an entry for my gratitude day challenge and I was like, what is there to be grateful for? 😭🤷🏻‍♀

Nothing is working...

I cried out.

But then, I remembered a story of someone who complained of same to a pastor and the pastor asked him to list out the things that are working and replace them with things that aren't working.

Eyes ☑
Legs ☑
Brains ☑

Obviously, there are so many irreplaceable things which are working and if you were to replace them with the things not working, you'd probably be at a loss.

Though the fig tree 🌲 may not blossom, 🌸 I will yet praise Him.

Today, being the 31st day of @tojuakaka's gratitude day challenge, I choose to be grateful for everything.

God has been faithful to me in time past and even though I'm going through whatever.... I will yet praise Him.

Yes it’s good to be thankful even in adversity and the worse moment in life. Greatful is the Lord. Still yet, I still thank you too for what you did today... you are a bae

Lol, I thank God for the opportunity to do so today

When I face such times, one thing I always remind myself to be thankful is that "It could have been worse". God is always faithful dear, your morning is dawning hence the darker nights. Praise Him @julietisrael.
