It easy to "count it all joy" when life is full of bliss and moments that you want to capture .. but what about when life day after day is not giving you a break?..! Do you still count it all joy..!
I have a very very easy life next to the majority of people in this world, and I hate to even go to the place of feeling like I want to scream, but I must say each day that has been passing on little to no sleep and as each day goes by I so want to count all my problems and make sure everyone KNOWS how miserable I feel..
I have a wonderful Savior.. Who is so very very personal!.. He knew how tired I was and so instead of letting my children nap today he decided to keep them awake..! ( you see nap time is never a time for me to rest but always a time to get as much done as humanly possible.. work out .. clean out.. get dinner started.. bills.. everything and anything I use every spare moment.. )
I headed upstairs.. Got Ella out of bed and decided to take a shower and then we sat and played 'people' while listening to worship music!..
I had such an amazing time of worship with my children.. as we sang, danced and played together!..
So a day that I would normally consider miserable has turned into a glorious day.. Did anything change? Did God give me children who sleep, Did he take the whine out of my 2 year old or make all the messes go away? NO.. He changed my heart making me just a bit more like my Savior!.. THAT IS WHY I can count it all JOY!..

Count it all joy
It easy to "count it all joy" when life is full of bliss and moments that you want to capture .. but what about when life day after day is not giving you a break?..! Do you still count it all joy..!
