Blessings

I've been thinking a lot lately about the many blessings which God has lavished upon me . . . of course, the first is His love, grace and forgiveness! He has also blessed me with an amazing husband - we met on a volcano and have been married for 38 years this year! We have two grown children and one daughter-in-law - all blessings from the hand of God! I have three wonderful grandsons . . . most certainly blessings from God!

I have a family I love and who loves me! I have friends! I have a house in which to live . . . it is actually the house my grandparents built, my dad was born in this house and my family has always lived here. I have been blessed with a church where God's Word is preached each week. I am able to write and I count all of you who read my blogs as great blessings, too.

These are just some of the amazing blessings God has lavished upon me! I just read a study which said when people take time to think about: to savor the blessings in their lives, they are much more happy! I find great joy in "savoring" the blessings of God.

As you go through this day, take time to think about, to savor, the blessings God has given to you, too!
