It is already good
I heard Mike from Southeast Community Outreach speak today. One of my take-aways was a great reminder of how good my life already is and just how blessed I am.
My county, Douglas County, is one of the more affluent counties in the nation and yet there are over 40,000 families in Douglas, Arapahoe, and Elbert counties that are living below the poverty level. 1 in every 5 school aged children in Douglas County eats little to nothing on the weekends. During the week, they get breakfast and lunch at school. Shocking!
Sure, my finances are not as good as I’d like them to be. Sure, my business isn’t as big as I’d like it to be. But those are first world problems compared to the challenges people in my own community are facing.
So, I am immensely grateful for how good my life already is! I am blessed!
