Thanking Him in All Circumstances

I am still learning to thank God in all circumstances. In the blessing as well as in the trials. Such as this last week. My parents had been blessed with a train trip to the west-coast for their anniversary, which I am very grateful for. I was so excited because it also was a break for my family to be away from my parents. Even though the week started out well it quickly went from good to bad as I got sick and my husband schedule didn't allow for me to have much down time to recover. I was so discouraged because I wanted the week to be a time of Ray and I and the kids and I just getting closer and instead we were all grousing at each other.

As I thought of the turn of events, I was so discouraged but God in His wisdom began to remind me that even in these circumstances I should be giving Him thanks and praising His Name. Thank you God that You can use any situation to give Yourself glory!
