Attitude of Gratitude

I've been particularly introspective these past few weeks. When life happens you have no real choice but to deal with it...and so I do. Not too fond of hospitals, and havent been for a while, but there comes a time when you have to put yourself and your own feelings to the side.

Visiting my Aunt Linda and Ms. Olga has been anything but easy. I've made the trips alone and I've been accompanied, each time leaving a little more discouraged about the future prospects. This week I decided to put my faith to work. I got my real talk on with God and I reached out to my prayer warriors and gave them the 411. When I left their respective hospitals today I was so thankful. Thankful that their spirits and energy were upbeat and they looked healthier then they had in weeks. We laughed, we talked and even shed a tear or two. I am so thankful that even in the midst of the storms of life, I know my God is faithful and has a reason for the season. And for all of that I am thankful. Amen!
