If you have six minutes and ten seconds to spare, preferably before you start your day, go to YouTube and find Gratitude by Louie Schwartzberg. My brother, Hap, gave me the heads up on this beautiful short film and it impacted me greatly.
My journey through cancer has a way of distracting me these days and I realize that this doesn't happen without my permission. It's too easy to choose to let the things that are wrong dictate my outlook rather than the many, many things that are right.
"Help me to see how good Thy will is in all, and even when it crosses mine teach me to be pleased with it. Grant me to feel Thee in fire, in food and every providence, and to see that Thy many gifts and creatures are but Thy hands and fingers taking hold of me."-The Valley of Vision.
"The Lord strengthens and protects me; I trust in Him with all my heart. I am rescued and my heart is full of joy; I will sing to Him in gratitude."-Psalm 28:7 (NET).
I am grateful beyond words for the marvelous gift of each moment.
On the health front:
We had a short meeting with Dr. Ambrad after radiation yesterday and once again I am grateful to report that he found no reason for concern.
I'm not experiencing any side effects that can't be lessened by a pill or a nap so Gratitude is my choice for today...and beyond!
