Last week I began a teaching I entitled, “Joy In The Journey!” Many people spend their life looking for the next vacation, the next bonus, the kids to get grown, or even the next relationship, in order to have something enjoyable in life.
The fact is, that most of life is just everyday routine, just doing the things we have to do on a regular basis. You know, going to work, cleaning the house, cooking the meals, paying the bills and taking care of the kids. So, if we only enjoy the fun times, we will not have very much joy in our life.
What we have to do is make a decision that I am going to enjoy my day! Even in doing the mundane, routine things I have to do. The way to do that is to decide to look at the good things we have in our life instead of grumbling about the bad. We can always find someone who is worse off than us and, I believe we can always find some good in any situation.
Be thankful you have the ability to go to that job you may not really be happy with! Be thankful for that house you have got to clean! Find SOMETHING good about the spouse that is really not treating you like you want to be treated! Take some time to enjoy the children in your life!
This is the life you have, decide to enjoy it to the fullest!
