I realize that I am blessed.
I am blessed by a family who loves me.
I am blessed by a larger family of God who love me.
I am blessed with a home.
I am blessed with a car.
I am blessed with a sound mind.
I am blessed with good health.
I am blessed by God Himself.
I have done nothing to deserve these blessings.
I am not more special than anyone who is not blessed with or by these things.
I cannot expect to be blessed by all these things always.
Hmmm
This is a difficult concept. I do not deserve anything that I have received.
I cannot do anything to earn what I have been given.
I am no more special than you!
Yet I am special.
I am blessed.
You are special.
You are blessed.
Remember Grandma singing Showers of Blessings? She knew what she was singing. She was blessed. She did not have a husband for many many years. She raised her children on her own. She worked to provide. She knew hard times.
Yet...she understood that she was blessed.
Just a Glimpse gives a glimpse into my life. If you could read my mind just a little bit this is how I think... family, daily life, faith.
