Tomorrow is another day

I read this today and it got me thinking of how we all do it. We only pray in the times of need, hoping that God will be there to fix our problems or rekindle a broken relationship. we pray for a sick friend, the starving. We pray for ourselves when we need something. I mean, it's not that it's wrong, but what does He get in return?

I'm guilty of this myself. We need to pray in times of trouble but never forget to pray when things are going well. How often to you count your blessings? When you're having a bad day, of course it's not wrong to pray, but when you're having a good day, pray in to be appreciative, to be thankful for the people He put in your life that love and surround you. count your blessings. While it's good to pray for the starving or the sick, why not also do something about it? Bring them food, stay by the sick friends side. It's easy to say a few quick words to God, but it shows true character to show an act of kindness. If you pray-it's great to pray for those in need or for something you need in your life. But before you go to bed, also think of all your blessings.

And for those who don't pray, how many times do you hear people complain or say "I'm having such a bad day"? It's not wrong to state you're having a bad day, but how many times do you hear people say they're having a good day, or make a positive comment about things? Not nearly as much. It's all in your ability to turn a situation around. When you're having a bad day, laugh it off. Find something good in it. Tomorrow is another day. Just remember to be thankful for the days you have that are amazing. Pay attention to the good and the happy times you're having, not just the bad, and you'll be a happier person. ♥
