Guess who's growing up!!๐ถ
Guys! I'm pushing 1 years out on the mission! How crazy is that, the time really flies by out here, where has the time gone.
Okokok, we'll start with our
Spiritual thought: count your blessings
Ok, so for today, my thought is going to be about the title, but I think It'll be a bit different than how it is commonly used. We always say to count our blessings and to be grateful. Yes that is 100% true and I love this, but I want to expand further this inspired phrase.
Often we try our hardest to count blessings, but not often enough we don't let the small things count as blessings.
Let me use an example. We as missionaries have a really weird looking graph mapping how much friends come to church. One week it'll be 6+ friends or other times we won't have any. Our average currently is about 3 friends every week. So, it can be frustrating to see such a successful week, then find only 1 friend came the following week. But my mom told me this, at least you got one.
This doesn't only apply to missionary work. What do we count as blessings in our lives? Do we get in the bad habit that big blessings are the only blessings? I don't remember that in the phrase.
So, let's stop being so stubborn and count our blessings as blessings, because there are a lot more once you start looking small. I hope you all will see the huge change that will come from this simple thing. I know that we can find gratitude in every circumstance.
Weeklies:
- We had interviews with president on Tuesday and he informed me that I'll be leaving Quatre-รtages. #It'sbeenalongbattle
