Seasons in Life To Be Thankful For

Was there a time you felt so down and time that you felt so happy? A day that you were motivated at work and then got demotivated? Was there a time you feel you were the most beautiful person and on the other day you will see yourself as the ugliest creature ever created? Do you remember the first time you walked? Went to school? Changed fashion taste and style? Graduated? Get a job and so on....

For years we spent in this earth for sure we already went through each and every season in our lives that sometimes we like and sometimes we don't, we find ways to change it and sometimes we just accept and goes with it's flow. But was there even a time that we appreciate and thank God with the current season of our life? 

I remember during my grade school, I always wanted to grow up fast so that I can be a teacher. Then when I reached my high school days, I wished to be a college student already so I can do whatever I like, have boyfriends and hangout with friends. And when I went to college I was always looking forward to the graduation day so that I could find a good job, get salary and buy everything I want to. Instead of expressing our gratitude, we keep on complaining and complaining and complaining!! -- Discontentment.

If we will just give ourselves a time to think about it, we will realized that what and who we are right now is the fruit of what we had been through in the past. Those seasons shaped our lives to be the person God had intended us to be. We might have commit mistakes but as long as we learned from it, that is OK.  So if we never practiced appreciating the life we had years ago. It is never too late. If you are a student now, a young professional, a businessman, a traveler, a musician, an employee, whether if you are in love or brokenhearted, you're rich or broke, or whatever it is that is happening in your life now APPRECIATE AND THANK GOD. Enjoy and live it while you are still young so when you get older you will also appreciate that season because you know that you were able to maximize this life with the way you lived it. 

One last thing that we always have to remember: God is with us in every single season.


22 So I saw that there is nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work, because that is their lot. For who can bring them to see what will happen after them? -  Ecc. 3:22
