Optimistic

Optimistic.
So, I typed this whole blog on being optimistic, and how people who know me know that that's not something you think of when you think of me. I said I need to trust that God has a bigger plan for my life than just what I can see in front of me. I said how blessed I am to have such a wonderful family, all of them. I don't know why God chose to bless someone that is so pessimistic and depressed all the time, but that is how God works. I owe my whole life to Him. He's always been faithful to me. I just get so stuck in the here and now that I forget that God is in control. I need to take a breath and just live my life today how God would want me to. Then tomorrow wake up and do it all over again. I need to not worry about what my future holds. I really just want to be happy and optimistic about my life. So I need to let it go. Whatever storms come I need to trust that God will see me and my family through them.
Anyway, I typed the whole blog and pushed some button and the whole thing disappeared! I turned and looked at my husband. I said my blog is about being optimistic, and the whole thing just went away and I can't get it back. I didn't get mad I didn't get frustrated, I laughed. I just laughed, and started typing all over again. This is nothing like the first one. It's much shorter in fact. But you know what, it's okay! I laughed at something that normally would have made me so mad I wouldn't have even started over. So a good start, to being optimistic. At least I think so.

Oh I forgot, this song by Natalie Grant, "In Better Hands", I can't figure out how to put music on here so in a different blog I'm going to post the lyrics. I love this song so much, because it just reminds me that I'm in better hands than my own. No matter what happens, I'm in better hands.

I laughed!!!! :)
