I will not be bitter that I am stuck in this hospital bed, I will choose to be thankful that my baby is growing and doing well. I will use this time to grow closer to God and prepare myself for what my be to come.
I will not be mad that the Lord took my mother, I will be grateful that He blessed be with her in the first place.
I will not be jealous that my husband is getting to spend so much alone time with Leo, I will be happy that my boys are growing closer.
I will not feel sorry for myself that I am being put through this difficult season, I will rejoice that the Lord is holding me and I will except what I have been given.
I will not worry about what could happen to this baby or to me, I will trust that Jesus is in control.
I will trust God even when it hurts. I will accept my portion.
I want to be more like the apostle Paul who said... " I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances... I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation... I can do all things through Him who gives me strengh."
God... is the blessed controller of all things, the king over all kings and the master of all masters. -1 Timothy 6:15
Lord, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. -Psalm 16:5
I keep my eyes eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. -Psalm16:8
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. -Phillippians 4:6,7
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. -Romans 12:12
