Grateful for the little things

I woke up today asking God what he wanted me to talk about today. I moved slow waiting for instruction. I came across a video saying how people have it all and are crashing out. How they got it to quick to maintain it. I thought about the suggestions to do it differently to get more followers. How I should use others platforms to push my products. I know how I am doing it is how I was instructed to do it.

I talked to our oldest last night about her decision for college. She had orientation for her college yesterday and said she just didn't feel excited about it. I told her the school she wanted to go to was also the school I wanted to go to but I didn't have the money. So I understood. She continued to talk about the school she wanted to go to and how she felt discouraged from it. I continued to talk to her and told her the school she was going to is the one I heard her the most excited about. She left that college visit glowing, excited about the program, and had no cons.

She realized the one she was disappointed about not going to had the most cons when she was working on choosing a school. That was the school everyone else was telling her she should go to. She was going to the school she wanted to. I told her don't fall pressure under the weight of people living vicariously through her. She began to speak about her first encounter with the college she is attending and began to speak of all the things she loves about it.

It all flowed together today. I began to think about how grateful I am that I have 67 subscribers on my channel. When I started it was just me talking to a camera, and I was happy to just get it out. I thank God for me having a website that I get to blog on throughout the week. I thank God that he made me a writer, and continues to have me working on projects. I thank God that I am able to do it authentically me. So when he says it is time for me to have more. I can walk into it gracefully not overwhelmed to keep up with anyone.

Just continue to be obedient and it will be something that will sustain. Something I don't have to pretend to maintain. Something created just for me and the people that genuinely enjoy that. God I thank you.
