Attitudes of Gratitude - # 6 - November 6th, 2012

It's Hard to Be an Eagle . . . 


. . . when you're surrounded by turkeys!

What a day!  One thing after another went wrong.  I won't go into detail now, but I was left thinking about how hard it is to be thankful for some of the "turkeys" that appear in my life, and how much harder than that it is to express gratitude in the middle of frustration and "falling shoes".  

I come away from November 6th thankful, mostly, that every day is not like it was.  I wish I was more where the Apostle Paul said we should strive to be . . . 

"I have learned in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content."  
Philippians 4:11
