Many people HATE Mondays...back to work, back to school, back to "reality". I though, don't really mind Mondays. There is something about getting back into the routine and schedule that does my heart some good. Of course I don't like to be away from my family but I do like my ministry so it makes the work week bearable.
Today though... well, I'm not a fan of today! This Monday greeted me with a big "thumbs down"! Of course there is the snow factor - I knew it was too early for spring. So, there Jonah (my 19month old) and I were plunging through the snow to get to daycare. But then the "little fires" of my work day began. These "fires" are not huge raging fires...but little ones. However, its funny how just a little fire first thing on a Monday can seem to spur into a forest fire. There I walked into work with a furrowed brow and "focused". The dark cloud was upon me.
Luckily for me a fellow coworker started my fist meeting of the day with a prayer of Thanksgiving. Then I remembered...in the big scheme of things life is good. It was a bit of a reality check for me. So, even though I feel the dark cloud on the horizon...I am working hard to keep my attitude focused on Him and the blessings he has given me.
Well, my Monday came in like a lion - I'm praying it goes out like a lamb.
Have a good week!
