Counting Blessings

Counting Blessings Poem

So, you know those moments when you're just sitting there, and suddenly, you're hit with this overwhelming feeling of gratitude? Yeah, those are the moments I'm talking about—the ones where you realize how blessed you truly are, even in the midst of life's craziness.

I was thinking about that poem we shared earlier about life's blessings—it really struck a chord with me. It's like, blessings aren't always these big, flashy things. Sometimes they're as simple as a kind word from a friend, a beautiful sunset, or even just a moment of peace in the chaos.

There's this verse from James that totally speaks to that: "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." (James 1:17, NIV). It's like a reminder that all the good stuff in our lives? Yeah, that's straight from God's heart to ours.

So, as we keep lifting each other up in prayer and praising the One who's got our backs, let's not forget to take a sec and count our blessings. Seriously, let's make it a habit to find joy in the little things, 'cause trust me, those little things? They add up to something pretty darn beautiful.

Sending you all loads of love and gratitude 🙂💜
