I should be grateful

As I woke up this morning, a dark shadow was cast over my
bed... I HAVE TO REFEREE TODAY - Ugh! (Per Charlie Brown)
Every week I say that I am going to retire...and every week there
I am on a Saturday, running around, chasing children and blowing a
whistle.I know I should be thankful for this opportunity for extra
money & exercise, but I just cannot shake the fact that I just do not
want to do it. Then I remembered what Paul wrote in 1 Thes. 5:16-18.
"Be joyful always; Pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances,
FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS (My caps)."
So, as I play that verse in my mind all day - this (I Hope) will help me
become motivated.

Lord, I want to follow your will.
