I'm on to my next step: Moving back into my mother's house. I'm a wreck about it--cranky, emotional, anxious. All together keyed up. I think this is the reminder that I need to keep my attitude pleasant, calm, and grateful.
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.

For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.

For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 5:3-10
Just thinking about the blessings I have should be enough to keep the hurricanes away! I have two jobs! A roof over my head! A mother who loves me enough to take me back into her home, whose love is patient and kind! Supportive friends who will mourn with me, counsel me, and celebrate with me! An awesome God who created an awesome world!
I pray to remain meek and merciful during the stress of this move, to be mindful of my blessings, to be a peacekeeper when storms come up.
