What would be your greatest day?

"If you had no children and then suddenly today you were blessed with toys to organize, bedtime stories to tell, and little messy hands to wipe, wouldn't it be your greatest day ever?

If you were paralyzed and then today you could climb the stairs, run after a toddler, jump up and down cheering for your teen, wouldn't this be your greatest day?

If you had no husband and then today God gave you a man to do laundry for, help fold his collar over his tie, cook his favorite meal, and wrap your arms around as you fell asleep, wouldn't this be your greatest day ever?

If you had no home, then suddenly you were blessed with dishes to wash, beds to make, weeds to pull, and floors to sweep, wouldn't this be your greatest day ever?

If you had no friends and then today you had one who wanted your advice, another who wanted to come over and visit and another who just wanted to share a funny story with you, wouldn't this be your greatest day ever?

If you had no sight, then suddenly today you were blessed with a blue sky to gaze up at, a child's smile to catch a glimpse of, and a beautiful flower to admire, wouldn't this be your greatest day ever?

If you had no Savior, then suddenly today you learned of the One who died in your place so that you could be forgiven, healed and set free, wouldn't this be your greatest day ever?"
(Lysa Terkeurst from Who Holds the Key to Your Heart?)

We have so many things to be thankful for. It is so easy to lose sight of these gifts we have been given and the Giver of them! I really appreciated this refreshing way to articulate our thankfulness for the every day (mundane) life we may feel. God is good!
