Attitude adjustment

Changing my attitude has been the best thing for me. For the last couple months I had a complaining spirit. I would complain about everything. I was so sick of life not going my way. Well, when I went to church a few weeks ago there was a word spoken. The word was that if you have a bad attitude you should stop and put on a garment of praise. So I went home and through thought and prayer I did just that. I slipped on my garment of praise and have not taken it off. I wrote all my complaints on one side of the paper and then on the other sides I wrote out my prayers of thanksgiving for each complaint. My heart was in the right spot finally. I didn't expect anything in return. I just knew that my mouth was not honoring to the Lord. Later that week I was talking to friend and telling her that I hope the Lord blesses us with a portable dishwasher come canning season. She told me that her parents had one that they didn't need and that it was sitting in their front yard for the last 2 weeks getting ready to go to the dump. She called her parents and they said take it. We rescued the dishwasher and brought it home. It is only 5 years old at most. We had to change the nozzle on our faucet to make the dishwasher fit. So for $5 we were able to get our dishwasher. I know that when I changed my attitude and the way I look at life the more clearly I am able to see the blessings of Christ. Thank you Jesus for the dishwasher!
