The other day, my 10-year-old daughter and I were both in a bad mood😒. Our moods ended up clashing like baking soda and vinegar 🌋

I was venting/talking to the Lord about the incident the next morning. It wasn’t so much that I was complaining about all I have to do. I’m thankful that I can do the things I do for my family. I was just feeling unappreciated in that moment. I had done so much for her, and I was exhausted. I guess I was just hurt by her giving me attitude. She truly had no idea what all I had to go through that day to make sure she had what she needed. She’s just so used to me doing what I do, that it is not a big deal to her.

While I was explaining all that to the Lord, it hit me ‼️ He knows exactly how that feels! I always have something that I need. But how often do I stop to thank Him for the things that I take for granted? 😔 He didn’t have to allow me to wake up, but I did. I could be unemployed, but I’m not. I just begrudgingly get up and go to work. I could be in the hospital right now, but I’m not. I can move freely at home with my loved ones.

I was doing the same thing that I was upset with my daughter about. I was taking my blessings from my Heavenly Father for granted.

Lord, forgive me for not appreciating how good you are, even though I don’t deserve it. Thank you for being the Good God, the Good Father that You are! Thank You Lord, for loving me ❤️

Psalms 136:1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
