I have put a lot of thought lately into blessings. I think of things I can buy and things that are only by the grace of God.
My life is filled with so many blessings from God I really feel bad when I have a desire for an earthly possession.
A tiny list of blessings goes as such:
My parents; I didn't choose the life I was born into and my selfish nature would probably have picked a family that would give me more worldly things. The family God chose for me to be born into, though provided far beyond wordly toys and trinkets. Randy says I was spoiled by love and I probably was. My parents loved me with tenderness and discipline. They taught me the value of hard work and respect and honesty and was always there if I fell or stumbled. Even as an adult they still take care of me and help me to be a success as a parent and person. I am so blessed to have my Mom & Dad to love me.
My kids are healthy; far too often we take health for granted. I can not ever pay enough money to get a healthy body. My boys are healthy and no amount of money could replace that. God has blessed me and for that I am thankful.
I have a husband that not only loves me, he respects me; submitting to my husband is not a problem to me because I trust my husband and he shows me great respect. He protects me and even when our young boys talk back to me, he hears and comes and tells them they are never to talk to their Mom like that,ever. Randy is my best friend and money could not buy what God has given to us in marriage.
Blessings abound in my life and I never really have to look far to find them. I try really hard to not let little things upset me because I have so many things I did nothing to earn that could really be gone in an instant, so I need to grab hold and appreciate my life now while I have it.
