Silver Linings

Lately, I've had so many instances of bad luck come my way. If I didn't look for silver linings, I'd be curled up in bed moping.  I have been blessed over and over again with reminders of how much I have to be thankful for.  I am learning patience, obedience, and contentment. Perfect timing, God.
 
Car overheats on the side of the road
Husband is not far away and can fix it.
 
Other awful things go wrong with the car
Husband knows just how to fix it
We own two cars, even if they're not perfect.
 
I don't have a car to drive at my convenience
We still have one functioning vehicle and the finances to fix the broken one.
I get more time to spend with my husband in the mornings and afternoons.
I have amazing best friends who don't mind coming to pick me up for girls' night!
 
I got so sick I couldn't even breathe
I have a job that provides insurance.
We have a health savings account.
I have a husband who takes care of me in sickness and health.
Doctors, shots, and antibiotics make it so much better.
 
No signs of leaving the Little Hiney Home any time soon
I am getting to make our sweet home more homey.
I don't have a lot of square feet to clean and manage.
We have the coziest space I've ever been in.
I can already mentally prepare for Christmas. ;)
