My mom sent me this picture the other day to remind me that God has given me an AMAZING. full, and blessed life. It’s the ice cream, syrup, and yummy toppings in the dish of life. A baby will be the cherry on top. It’s easy to forget all the good things and blessings our lives are full of when we are missing that ONE THING we think might complete it… in this case, for many of us, it is a baby. I am thankful for this reminder. My life IS NOT an empty dish – there is SO MUCH in it… SO MUCH to be thankful for! And yes, a baby WILL be “the cherry on top.”
Are you seeing an empty dish? Don’t! Realize the blessings in your life, be thankful for them, and do something with your life today! Why miss out on all that’s in the dish… waiting for the cherry on top? Enjoy it, see a full dish, and be thankful!
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Amplified Version, “Thank God in everything no matter what the circumstances may be, be thankful and give thanks…”
“God never promises to remove us from our struggles. He does promise, however, to change the way we look at them.” – Max Lucado
