Days of PURPOSEFUL Thankfulness – Day #115

Note: Refer to day number 1 (July 25, 2015 post) if you do not know what this is all about.

I am thankful for being prepared, prepared to do whatever it is that I am to do or say while I WAIT on the opportunity. If you are like me, you can get restless with reading, studying, or listening—gaining much knowledge, and growing in wisdom but having no outlet. Now I am thankful for those times because I am coming into those situations where an opportunity presents itself. It is like an "ah ha" moment. One particular situation occurred this past weekend in a class I was facilitating. There was a question asked that I never anticipated but was smiling on the inside because I thought, “finally, someone is thinking below the surface.” Therefore, now I have the opportunity to pull together information I have to give a “clear” answer back to this person and the rest of my class. Side note: I am of the breed that likes to jump down rabbit holes and come back up saying—look what I found! I like to dig deeper—point blank.

Your soul’s hunger may seem unfulfilled and make you feel it is all pointless. However, if your hunger for more has you in a state of constant preparation that has you asking “for what,” do not give up! In addition, if you are now starting to see even a glimmer of "for what" you were preparing—be thankful!
