I continue to keep having the question of “Why me?” pop up in my
thinking and thanksgiving. Why am I so blessed. I try to avoid the
question and just rejoice.
I have also learned to be
thankful for whatever level of blessing God chooses to give me.
Think of it as the difference between lamb and mutton. Since I
rarely eat lamb I can’t speak from experience, but I understand the
difference is dramatic. Lamb can be tender and delicious. Mutton
can keep you alive and that is about it. Mutton is old, stringy and
tough. It will supply you with the nutrients to stay healthy but it
is not a joy to eat.
I feel like God supplies me with lamb
much more than mutton. What I need to keep in mind is that I should
be thankful for either one. God knows my needs. He knows the
nutritional value of different foods and the emotional value of
different experiences. I rejoice in His level of providing.
