So during church today, well almost everyday at some point I realize how lucky I am. I'm so grateful for so many things. But one of the thoughts that came into my head during the sermon today was how grateful I am to those around me. Those who help me in my everyday life, and those who I don't even know but offer and lending hand. Its been amazing to see how people in our community around us lend a helping hand.
This year has been a major struggle. Some days are still a struggle, but my life has been blessed by so many people!
I am so grateful for the people around me, not just the people who help out everyday but for those whom I don't even know and care enough to lend a helping hand when times are tough (mostly talking about when I'm at the grocery store and someone will help take my basket away or help carry packages while I'm busy with my daughter). Its amazing how community works!
So I took notes during sermon today....and these were my immediate thoughts...
I am consumed by hope and gratitude for those that help me.
I am continually amazed by the outreach and support by those, not just friends, but complete strangers in our community who selflessly give their time to help me out (and I'm sure others too) with my daughter. I could not be more amazed or grateful. Everyone who enters our lives, helps, even in some little way, helping to raise our beautiful, wonderful daughter, and that truly means the world to me. God is there. God loves us all and I see it everyday . Its amazing.
