I absolutely LOVE this quote but it is seriously hard for me to practice this. So many times in my life I have struggled having the patience to wait for something to happen. I'm not quite sure why I think I deserve to have things happen on my terms. I guess I just figure that I know what I want (or often think that I need) and I am putting in the work, so why is it not happening?!
I have to take a step back every time a much anticipated change or event happens in my life and realize just how blessed I am that it happened in the right time. Duh!!
God (the universe/ higher power/ whatever) knows what he is doing. Everything happens at the exact time that it is supposed to. If only I would listen to my sweet husband's advice I would realize this by now. 😉
So for all of you out there struggling with having patience... just have FAITH IN HIS TIMING!

Have you
ever stopped to think about the fact that everything you have was once just a wish/dream/want?
Think about it...
That certain someone you hoped to date. That job you REALLY wanted. That baby you dreamed of. How nice your life would be if you only had that SUV.
The morning of Jan 1st this year, I lay in bed snuggling with my family and thought "my main goal this year is to begin and end as many days JUST LIKE THIS as I can". It seemed impossible because between my husband and I, our jobs rarely allowed us to wake up or go to bed at the same time. In fact, we were lucky if we were able to eat dinner as a family even one night a week and monday-friday we rarely saw each other for more than an hour each day, if even that much.
Well our circumstances have changed and due to a soon-to-be new baby and a job change. We will be able to eat dinner together EVERY night and wake up together most days!!
What!! I can't even believe it.
What has your mind, thoughts and wishes so powerfully created without you even realizing?
Do you take time to appreciate these amazing wishes that have come true?
