"Never tell God how big the storm is, tell the storm how big your God is."
--A good phrase for life in general and also for the recent hurricane activities.
"Because He forgives us, we must also forgive."
--Sometimes the scars remind us of how much we went threw. Sometimes, it can be so hard to remember and you get this feeling in your gut that just makes you want to curl up and die. But, as Christians, God has forgiven us time and time again, no matter what, He looks past what we do wrong. As Christians, we should do the same; forgive even when it's the hardest.
Sometimes, being one of five children(especially the middle one), makes it hard to see what I actually do have. Growing up, I can guarantee that there was at least one of us saying "well why can't i have what he/she has".
I always seem to have the short end of things. When I shared a room, I got the smallest areas. When I got my own room, I got the smallest room. I always seem to look at what I don't have, rather than what I do have.
I have a home. I have a room. I have my OWN room. I have a bed. I have clothes. I have air-conditioning. I have a family, though sometimes broken, still a whole family.
God has blessed me even when I overlook those blessings. I have more than so many people have. And for that, I will be thankful.
