Lets think about something:
Tuesday school starts. Monday, even though it's labor day, we have swim practice. I can't even pick up my new and improved schedule until the first day of school. I won't even know what books and stuff to get until then either.
That's what happening on one side of my brain....
...now lets think about something else:
Today, I get to go to a super fun Huskies game with my cousins in Seattle. Tomorrow, I get to go to church for the first time in 2 weeks. Monday, it's only an hour and fifteen minutes practice and it's at Bayside. I know where all my classes are at school. I have a family that continues to hug me and tell me I'll do great this year. I have a coach and a team that push me and also hug me and tell me I'll do great this year. I have an abundance of friends constantly sending me messages, letters, verses etc. to encourage me through the transition of the new school year. I'm blessed.
Now, measure those two thoughts. Which one is greater?
Lets think about something else.
The first thoughts come from a worried fear-filled side of my brain that is slowly drifting away into oblivion. The second thoughts are coming from my entire god-blessed life.
Now let me ask you again. Which one is greater?
God blessed life > Fear filled brain
I've been focusing on me lately. Me and my distractions and troubles. Now, I find myself covered in blessings. So many incredible things keep popping up and keeping me realizing that everything thats happening is God.
It's like he's been tapping me on the shoulder trying to catch my attention and now that I'm realizing that, everything he's done -- and is doing -- is popping out to me. It's beautiful. And it's God.
