Staying Out of Bounds Host Celina Quayle continues the Relationship Series, "It's You, It's Me" with creating space for gratitude when in the midst of our relationship struggles. Being a people-pleaser, we find it easier to point fingers and hold blame on others for what we allow ourselves to tolerate simply because "I would never do that to them." 

Instead of being resentful for others not being like you, can you be grateful for YOU being someone like you? Our attitudes about our experience hold an incredible power over how we navigate through our journey, so why not control what we can control--starting with our attitude.

Being grateful when it's easier to be resentful is a challenge but one worth taking.  God works in mysterious ways and sometimes that has us questioning if He even cares for us. But let me say this: God's plan for a us is a plan to prosper, never to harm. What He uses for our good is something we can only see when we choose to be grateful, even when it's painful. Continue to choose you.

I'm proud of you.
