Appreciate always

Hey, this is Nicole again! I've been thinking... I know "scary" right, ha  (lame joke) Well anyways, Easter has passed but it got me thinking that I make it a point to appreciate Jesus' death more on Easter than anytime of the year. I do that with so much stuff. I really appreciate my mom on Mother's Day and Dad on Father's Day. The list goes on and on. I know I can't be perfect but really being super thankful for a short blast of time is not good enough. Being thankful for Jesus' sacrifice is not by saying Thank you, it is by doing something with what God has given to you and being appreciative of the things you have and even the things you don't have (Makes sense in my head). I have been just struggling with being appreciative to God in everyway, not just reading my Bible, praising God verbally, but I need to work on true trust, faith, thankfulness, appreciativeness. I say all this to say, God has a plan everyday for me and I need to totally be content and thankful no matter what it is and be thankful that he is there for me and has sacrificed more for me than I could ever repay b/c He loves me. He is always ahead of whats going on and always sees the big story, not just the cloudy fuzzy story, I sometimes may see. I will need His help on this!! This is just a quick thought that hit me, that I wanted to share that I was dealing with. I hope you guys can understand my mind clutter!! I really need to get Natalie to organize my thoughts for me ha!! (Funny picture) Thanks love you all!! -Nicole :)
