When your Monday morning begins with your backseat being covered in vomit by your 2 year old, you just know it's going to be a rough one. Just because it's been such a tough day, I am going to find 4 things to praise God for.
1. I praise God that whatever caused my son to be sick this morning did not stick around all day. It is so rough having a vomiting toddler and I am SO thankful I didn't have to endure that ALL day. Thank you, God, for having mercy on me with that one.
2. I praise God for Dr. Pepper. I know it sounds trivial, but I sure do enjoy a nice cold glass of it on a hot day. I love the flavor and the feeling of the bubbles tickling my tongue. I know all good things come from Him, even the little ones.
3. I praise God for my son's spontaneous hugs and his sweet spirit. He frequently stops whatever it is he is doing to run across the room or down the hall just to hug me. His little arms wrap around me in love and it melts my heart.
4. I praise God that He doesn't give up on me. Even when I have my down moments and feel myself falling, He still catches me and covers me with love. I am so thankful that in my moments of weakness, His strength is able to be glorified and my shortcomings can be covered by my Lord, Jesus Christ.
"Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."
