It is often easier for me to focus on what I don't have or on problems I face than it is for me to focus on the gifts and resources God has given me. A friend noted with understanding that I ask "why?" way more often about uncertainties and problems than I ask "why?" about my blessings.
I am facing a lot of uncertainties in my life right now. I have spent much time asking why, but I think now that I'm supposed to be truly grateful for what I do have and rest in the knowledge that my future isn't uncertain to God.
Why do you think we so often focus on what we don't have than what we do? For most of us, we are wealthier than 90% of the world. That puts much responsibility on us because we have been so resourced. What are you going to do with your time, talents, and resources in response to reading this book?
