Just when I labeled my day rough!

Please, scroll to the bottom of my blog and silence the music player before clicking play on this awesome, inspiring video! Thank you!

It's almost midnite and I should be in bed for my alarm is set to 6am (don't worry about me, I don't always hear it if my earplugs are still in, LOL. My 12 yo will make sure to wake me up, he's so good at that!!! ) But, here I am blogging, feeling convicted of a lot of many different things and I just had to share this humbling video. Just when I thought I could label my day as rough and hope and pray the next one is better this small reminder in an unexpected em (Mercola out of all the people?) brought rivers of tears penned up inside. I've seen Nick Vujicic in many videos on the www but I didn't see this one. It really came in my inbox at the right moment. I had to search for more even though it is so late, I couldn't get enough of this man who is histerically funny. Nick has no arms and legs but his testimony of Jesus Christ in his life is so powerful and yet hubling! I included it in this post as well below the original one I received today.

When I thought my mole hills I made out of my day's events were enough for me to sulk I had to be reminded of God's mercies. I am so thankful!!!. For every part of my body formed properly so I can hug my children. But I didn't feel like hugging my mischievous dd who climbed on the washer to get to MYYYYYYYYYYYYY hat (without permission, of course) on the top shelf and spilled bleach on the carpet. I didn't screw the lid correctly (it is a defected bottle with a messed up threat, upon close inspection) after I used it today. Now, we are renting, you know. Even though my landlord promised the carpet is coming out after we move, I don't believe that will be the case, but I better speak life and faith! I didn't feel like hugging my 3rd and 5th grader when I had to sit over them to finish their math and explaining the same concept for the ...th time. I plain didn't! I really wanted to get my hands on something else to be used on their derriere instead!!
But, now that I was so gently reminded of my abundant blessings by this humble man, I think I will go and tuck just 4 of them in and hug them, like I do every nite before I head to bed. I pray I am reminded of all of my blessings tomorrow and the day after. Rough day? Indeed! But the lesson learned at the end? Worth every bit of it! I'll get right back up tomorrow! And, Lord willing, I won't even have the bleach smell in my nose, eyes and wherever it can get in. It is rough now, but it will be better tomorrow. So, if you had a really rough day, don't forget you can get up easily! This man had to try many times just to get up. But yet he is so happy! And his testimony is on DVD now and can be shared so easily thru youtube as well. Bless someone today. Share his story and message. Be blessed!
