Ecclesiastes 3:12-13 I know that there is nothing better for
people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may
eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God.
Life is too short; begin to truly LIVE it! We tend to
complain about the mundane routines of the day and whether or not our lives
have great meaning or purpose. However, when we approach the minutia and
monotony of life as if we are doing it for God, our perspective changes. It is
possible the ordinary things of our lives may be the things that last the
longest. Stop waiting for your circumstances to change to bring happiness; find
happiness despite your circumstances and no matter what they are, your
circumstances will change. Waiting and wishing for the “next thing” is the
greatest thief of joy. Faith in God as provider, sustainer, and the One who
guides your life will enable you to find meaning in the meaningless, joy in
sorrow, patience through trials, contentment with less, companionship in
loneliness, and true wealth in poverty. Life is not a mere existence; it is a
gift intended to be opened each day and lived to the fullest!
Father, Teach me to live each day finding Your purpose in all I do. I
love You! Amen
