My reflection today:
“ May every day of your life bring you fresh hopes for tomorrow – because hope gives all of us our reason for trying. May each new day bring a feeling of excitement, joy and a wonderful sense of expectation. Expect the best, and you’ll get it. May you find peace in simple things, because those are the ones that will always be there.
May you remember the good times and forget the sorrow and pain, for the good times will remind you of how special your life has been. May you always feel secure and loved and know you are the best. May you experience all the good things in life – the happiness of realizing your dreams, the joy of feeling worthwhile, and the satisfaction of knowing you’ve succeeded. May you find warmth in others, expressions of love and kindness, smiles that encourage you, and friends who are loyal and honest. May you realize the importance of patience and accept others for what they are. With understanding and love, you’ll find the good in every heart. May you have faith in others and the ability to be vulnerable. Open your heart and really share the miracle of love and intimacy. Above all, may you always have positive thoughts.” – Regina Hill
Some days it is very easy to be positive but there are other days when it just doesn’t seem possible.
That’s when we need to really reach out to Jesus and ask for his grace to get us through whatever trial we are going through.
Again, it is much easier said than done.
