  2. Recall at the end of each day all that was done and achieved. Instead of focusing on what was not done, give thanks to God for what was Keep your eyes on the day’s blessings instead of its failures. Give thanks to God for His grace. Appreciate the enablement and wisdom He gave you along the way.

Finding God’s Path Through Your Trials discusses the hard times we all face and reveals how you can “count it all joy.” Elizabeth George reminds you that God won’t give you trials you cannot bear without including a way of escape.
