Many realizations and epiphanies have been coming to me lately. One is to live for eternity and not be so tied down with the physical world. Another is to see good fortune as a blessing, and misfortune as a lesson. By learning the lesson, even misfortune becomes a blessing of insight and wisdom. That is hard, especially when the pain and trauma are so deep. God’s will shall be done, and we all serve His purpose.
Amen. That is probably the hardest thing for all of us to do. I know it is for me. We always want more in this life - grass is always greener. But I'm going to try to thank God every day, even for the littlest things.

Yes, he's right. Count your blessings and name them one by one and see what God has done.
