“Rejoice today, refusing to worry about tomorrow.”
In this place where I am now, not worrying about tomorrow means not thinking about tomorrow. I need to practice actively rejoicing and praising out loud. I think that will dispel worry much faster than just not thinking.
So here goes my attempt at rejoicing today in the midst of it all:
Today I am thankful. I am thankful for my cheerful puppy, Shelby, who greets me with her wiggles when I wake up in the morning and helps me start my day with a smile. I am thankful for my husband who is steadfast and has built a cozy fire for me to sit by. I am thankful for this delicious coffee that I can enjoy before I start my day.
I am thankful for my girls who are asleep in their beds. I enjoy their amazing spirits. I am thankful for my supportive family who has surrounded me with love. I am thankful for all my dear friends at school and at church.
I am thankful for our home and it’s protection. I am thankful for my job and that God has made me successful at it. I am thankful for my health insurance. Without it, we would be in financial trouble. I am thankful that God is with me every moment of every day.
Thank You for never leaving my side and caring for everything about me. Thank You for your healing touch on my body and for a good doctor who puts patients first. I trust You will give me a great oncologist. Thank You for aligning everything in our lives so that we always see Your hand.
