Wake UP!

Wake up! You can only try so hard for so long before you truly get sick and tired of people and all their complaining. Guess what!? Your attitude towards life is a choice. I have a laundry list of crap I’d like to complain about, but it won’t change one thing. I ask for your prayers for my mom’s best friend that is taking her last breaths.  A best friend who’s mom has a brain tumor and she watches her suffer everyday. My dad who has been fighting cancer and is SO tired of feeling like crap. A friend who is going on her 6th surgery this year, yet keeps on smiling. A mother in law that just had open heart surgery.  A best friend on a list for a heart transplant.  How about a child that is brilliantly smart, yet socially handicapped. If you can’t see the issue, it’s not real, right?

It’s birthday season for all our kids and we happen to be missing one and this breaks our hearts!  The fact that every time someone tries to do something nice, it gets shot down with criticism of some sort. People everywhere afraid to move forward in life because of what “might” happen. Well guess what! The only thing you are in control of, is how you respond to situations and the people that love you. Cherish your people and don’t take them for granted. If someone is trying to love you, let them. It could change the way you look at life, it’s up to you. Open your eyes to all the blessings instead of the battles.  For goodness sake, Look Up, Be Happy and live while you can.

The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still. Exodus 14:14
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34
