2 Chapter 2: Gratitude

April 2, 2020 2:35pm:

Just got done on a walk with my wife and the dog we are baby sitting. God is so good and the works of His hands are everwhere. I look at my wife and think wow, what an angel.

Thought I'd mention her since we are also texting back and forth while I write this. She is definitely God sent, because she truly cares. I honestly don't know where I'd be without her..

Anyway, nature is God's handy work. Look around you, the details. The little flower in the ground doesn't go unnoticed.

Even the animals, God takes care of. So how much greater are you being His child? You have infinite worth and potential.

Only a good God would place you here and of course we have our agency or our freedom to choose. At least we can do whatever we want within reason and there are consequences whether they be good or not.

Everything happens for a reason, sometimes we do things for dumb reasons but everything happens for a reason. We are free to choose but we are not free from their consequences. Thank God for the Savior.

Without Him I definitely wouldn't know where I would be. I definitely wouldn't be texting my beautiful wife right now and I definitely wouldn't be as grateful. He puts gratitude in our lives.

Even the silly conversation I'm having right now with my wife. What would we do without our loved ones? Life would be meaningless of course.

But seriously, family matters most. Family doesn't have to be in the blood either. It's those that you surround yourself with who truly care.
