Sometimes I get stressed over all the things to do. The food to cook, the laundry to wash and fold, the dishes to clean, the house to tidy up, the bathroom to scour, the living room to dust and so on. Then, I am reminded of what a privilege it is to have a home to take care of and a family to nurture in it. Perspective has a way of keeping me humble. Also, there is something so satisfying and fulfilling in caring for all the responsibilities in which God has entrusted with us. With blessings, also comes responsibilities. May we appreciate all in which God gives us. Knowing that all that we have been entrusted with is truly a blessing from God, deserving of love and care. Instead of complaining of all we have to do, may we praise God for all that He has given.

Praise God for all He has given

James 1:17 NIV

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
