Day 15...Half-way there!

This morning I woke up grumpy...on the wrong side of my twin bed. I did not want to get up. I did not want to face life. I wanted to throw my cell phone out the window, mainly because at that moment it was serving as my alarm clock. I was banging the snooze button as if to punish it for doing exactly what I set it to do. However, staying in bed all day was not an option. The door bell was buzzing obnoxiously. My phone was ringing. I have to face the world today. I walk out of my room to let our house helper in and am greeted by all our dishes which are in our dining room. Why? Because we found baby cock roaches in our cabinet last night. Gross. So we took everything out and sprayed the kitchen down. Ugh. Now I am really longing to go back to bed. 

And then I remember: Eucharisteo. Have I given thanks for anything this morning? 

Thank You God for...cock roaches? Gotta start somewhere.

Thank You for this mess...

Thank You for Vaishali, our house helper, who helps us with our mess. 

Thank You for coffee in the morning.

Thank you for eggs for breakfast.

Thank You for providing everything I need each day.

Thank You that today is Tuesday! (I really do enjoy Tuesdays...we get to see Rajesh and Susheela today!) 

Thank You for giving me another day to enjoy You.

Thank You for being patient with me when I don't remember You or acknowledge Your grace.

"Satisfy us in the morning with Your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days." -Psalm 90:14
