God takes the ordinary and makes it extraordinary. He takes the old and makes it new. My old life of sin and sadness, He replaces with love and gladness. The past two days I have really been experiencing the joy of love and life... and it is great!
Some things have changed. I was able to obtain new transportation. In the process I learned that my efforts at credit improvement actually made a difference. (yes!) I took to the time to really appreciate and enjoy friendship relationships. I came to the realization that my strange and delightful sense of humor came from my parents, who are REALLY funny. I'm about to embark on a basement improvement project (which will also help to improve the financial situation even more.) And I've been gathering the final supplies and materials for our trip (which has been an adventure in itself).
But the main thing that has changed is my attitude and outlook. I asked for sight that I might see the beauty of love. God showed me that joy and beauty was already all around me. I hadn't seen it because I wasn't looking for it. Everyone sees what he or she is looking for.
What do you see?
