GOT PROBLEMS?

I know that there are two knowns in my life:

1) I will have problems, issues and transgressions; and 2) most of them of which I will have created!

I also realize the 2 constants,

1) that whatever problem I have experienced helped to prepare me in my life for greater things.... every, single one; and 2) You have never left my side and seen me through each one.

I praise You for all that is good. I refuse to see the glass half empty. I realize that there is much evil in this world and constantly around me, but I refuse to let it consume me, I let You consume me. When You do, amazing things occurs, energy happens, smiles happen, positive things happen and true life, as it should be lived, occurs.... I praise You and give You all the glory for it. As I set out today to perform Your work, I ask that You dispatch the Spirit to lay ground work for all that is good in my life. May You bless the National Guard Unit that we are seeing-off today. Keep them safe and let their message be true. I love You, I thank you and I can't wait to see what you have in store for me today. Amen
