Gratitude is a funny thing. Looking back over my week I can be thankful for so many things. But, in the moment, sometimes I wish things were different. So, God, please teach me to not only look back with gratitude, but to be thankful in the moment, too. Teach me to find joy in the mundane. Teach me to be at peace amidst the chaos of life.
Help me to know, that in the midst of each of these moments, that You are the same. Yesterday, today, forever.
