Today, I woke again feeling GREAT! I have no extraordinary reason except that I am getting my life in order. I learned to appreciate the small things in life at an early age. Yesterday, I went to Walmart and purchased a ladder so that I could change the light bulb in our living room. We have 12ft ceilings. I change the light bulb, well my uncle changed it because he likes to talk about me being dyslexic when it comes to doing handy work. He also fixed a problem with my toilet. I'm not dyslexic...well, not like you think. I have never done any handy work before and I am not ashamed to say it. I have what he likes to call a lot of book sense. Put it in a book and I know it. Doing it by hand and experimenting, I'm lost. I like to think of it as knowing my strong and weak points. Now when it comes to computers, I am the man. He calls me every time something is wrong with his computer. All in all we are one in the same. He won't admit, but that's the truth
Sometimes we have to face the truth about ourselves. Truth about me, I can't fix anything! I know I can't and when something needs to be fixed, I call my uncle. I know that he is good at fixing things and figuring out how to fix it. The smart thing about this is that I know who to call to get the job done. I am not about to try and fix it myself, knowing I know someone that can get it done and get it done fast. Know your limits and try to make the best of your life by calling someone who knows how to get something done that you don't. Doing this will make life easier and more enjoyable for you. After my uncle left, I cracked open me a Heineken and then went walking with my wife. Sounds weird, but I enjoyed it!
Getting your life in order little by little is a GREAT thing to do. When God blesses you with a little, make use of it. It will not only make you feel better, but it will set you up to be blessed again and this time it will be bigger. I am making do with the little that I have, what are you doing with your little bit?
