Simply Blessed

I celebrated my birthday last week with the simple sweet blessings of family, friends, worshipping and serving God, times of rest and time to reflect. I am grateful for where I’ve been, for how the Lord has led me into the unknown and shown me how He is my Healer and Provider. I am thankful for times of correction, restoration, redemption, renewal and refreshing. For every good and perfect gift that has come down from the Father of Heavenly lights:

·         my parents

·         my brother and sister-in-law

·         my nephew and nieces

·         my Chloe Maltese

·         my church family and Life Group

·         my job and co-workers

·         my home and material possessions

·         nutritious and delicious foods

·         people who know and share wisdom with regards to spiritual and physical health

·         hope, faith, trust for the future

·         peace for today

·         the assurance that God is with me

·         sun and rain

·         physical activity and physical rest

·         music that awakens my soul and nourishes the spirit within me

·         reasons to celebrate, pure joy

 

You make known to me the path of life; in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. – Psalm 16:11
