Needing to be more grateful...

I don't know how it happens, but 4 months have passed, and I've not posted about the things I'm grateful for.   I know that I need to start focusing on my blessings and that as I do, I will hopefully find the courage to keep pressing forward when it feels like life is a bit difficult.

Tonight, I just want to say I'm so grateful that the Lord continues to bless me, even when I don't necessarily deserve the blessings.  I have been really unsocial lately and had no desire to be social in the singles scene.  I just can't be bothered I guess you could say...  

Nonetheless, the Lord has blessed me with the right people in my life, to help me navigate the singles scene.  Just tonight I went over to Andrea's house.  She is 27 and has a roommate who is 30.  It just helps to realize that there are other people who are dealing with the same struggles I am dealing with.  It helps to see that there are others who would give anything to be married, but yet are plugging away everyday.  They are getting by on the "unexpected life". 

I just needed to remind myself that the Lord is showing his hand in my life, even when I am not doing everything right.  I am grateful to be reminded of his love for me, and to be reminded that there is a plan for my life even though I don't get the map at the moment.   I'm trying my best to TRUST that things are going to work out to my advantage in the end.  =)
