Glad Game

I was thinking about this little girl today.  I can remember watching Pollyanna with my mom over and over again as a child. 
From time to time, I have to go back to the Glad Game.  If life seems unfair, or work seems unending, etc...
I can focus on the relationships I've been blessed with, my God who loves me,
a precious home to call my own, an awesome husband, sweet pup! 
And not just focusing on the positive, but knowing that in the midst of difficult God is sovereignly working.
And I just need to trust Him.

I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.  Phil 4:11
(Way to go, Paul... I am getting there, but not there yet!)
