Gratitude is the Best Attitude

I don't have work today. I was a bit disappointed when I learned I only have three days schedule this week for the continuation of my training. Disappointed because I need the money. At the same time I like it coz it's like I need three days off to be able to do my personal things, rest, and psyche myself up going back to work. 

I will have the day shift tomorrow. I pray that it will be easier. I pray that I can do my duties responsibly and accurately. I also pray that my trainer is as patient as the one who trained me for almost two weeks. And I hope this trainer is more structured and prepared with hand-outs. And nice of course. 

I was overthinking again yesterday. Feeling anxious again going back to work with a different set of colleagues in the morning shift. Thinking about my hearing again. But of course, God led me to where I will be appeased. 

I chanced upon Father Jerry Orbos' reel. I love this priest because he sounds so sincere and kind. He said gratitude is the best attitude. And that's what I've been telling myself. Instead of worrying and overthinking and nurturing fear in my heart, why don't I see God's blessings for what they are. God gave me a job. The work environment is welcoming. I still have my other job. My husband is doing good in his job. I have parents who still supports me. I have opportunities to enlarge my knowledge. I can take control of my health. I have health insurance. God has always provided looking back. In every season of my life, God has always provided. 

Thank You, God. I give You all my worries, doubts, and fears. Prayers is my weapon whenever I feel down and worried and overthinking. 

I will follow Your plans for me, God. Whatever I do, whatever I plan for myself and my family, I will always pray to direct me where I should be. I have let go and let You, God. Please strengthen my faith in You. 

Lead me, God, in everything I do. 

Thank You.
