Breathe
Today we spent the day picking out flooring, cabinets, faucets, etc. for our new home. What a blessing that God has allowed us this opportunity! We went into the day with many anxieties, but prayed for God to give us peace. We didn't have the notes we had taken earlier this month and couldn't find information we needed, but a friend had texted me and reminded me to "breathe" and so I did. I breathed out fear and frustration, then breathed in gratitude and thanksgiving.
I made the comment to my husband that many would love to have our "problems" today. How many days do I forget that what God has given me is good, even when it is difficult? Does being "hard to do" automatically make something not worth doing? Maybe I ought to be seeking out the things that I perceive as overwhelming, maybe I'd encounter more "breathtaking" experiences.

Psalm 150:6 (NIV)
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.
May The Lord continue to bless you both and give you wisdom!!
