How to Enjoy Where You Are

In today’s post, I share how to enjoy where you are in life. Instead of rushing through what you don’t like, slow down and enjoy the journey.

If you’ll have the right perspective, you’ll find joy in the journey. You may not be in your dream house yet, but be grateful even while you’re in that apartment. Be grateful that you’re employed, even though where you work at right now is not where you think you should be.

The enemy would like to deceive us into enduring life, instead of enjoying life. You have to learn this principle. There is joy in your journey. There are things in your life right now that you can enjoy if you’ll have the right perspective. Look for the good in your family, your spouse, in that challenge. Look for areas that have improved.

If you’re going to have joy in the journey, you have to look past all the wrongs and see the right things. Be grateful that you’re still standing and still have air to breathe. Don’t focus on what’s wrong that you don’t recognize what’s right.

The people in your life are not always going to be there. Don’t take them for granted. Slow down and enjoy the time you have with the people in your life. It’s easy to live stressed out daily but realize that today is a gift from God. Don’t just endure the day, enjoy it. Twenty years from now, you’re going to look back with fond memories of today. You’re going to think: “Those were the good old days!”

Start finding joy in the journey. Many times, it’s the small things in life that give it real meaning. Yes it’s great to accomplish big goals, get married, have a child and move into the new house. Those are mountain-top moments. Some people live for them. That’s when they’re going to be happy, but those are few and far between.

Be grateful that you’re still standing.
Be grateful that you woke up today.
Be grateful that you have people to love.
Be grateful for another day to breathe, grow, laugh, and live.

Sometimes we’re waiting for the big miracle while missing the miracles in the mundane.

A sunrise is a miracle.
A child’s laughter is a miracle.
A walk with someone you love is a miracle.
Having your health, your mind, your opportunities, and another day of life is a miracle.

Don’t take ordinary moments for granted simply because they look ordinary.

Learn to enjoy the journey while you’re facing situations that are not getting any better. Enjoy the small things. Take time to laugh with your children and take walks with your spouse or significant other. Watch the sun rise in the morning. Listen to the birds singing. Take time to enjoy life with the people that matter most to you. Find joy in the journey.

Sometimes we’re waiting for big miracles but there are miracles in the mundane. Being alive is a miracle. If you have people in your life to love, that’s a miracle. If you have your health, a sound mind and opportunities, don’t miss the moment because it looks common.

Don’t look at your days as ordinary. Each day is a gift. God could have chosen anyone else to be alive at this time, but He chose you and me. We can see all the wrong, what we don’t have, live pressured and stressed or we can choose to focus on the good and appreciate even the simple things in life.

Commit to yourself that you’ll live out your days enjoying life and not enduring life.

Go out today and make life an adventure.
