It has been a while since I have posted anything personal, all I have shared are book review's today my heart is full and I want to share on blessings!!
Over the past few weeks so much has been happening, in the midst of the storm there are those little things that show you that GOD is still in control and knows all, I am referring to "BLESSINGS"!!
When your not looking and all of sudden you get a call at just the right moment, telling you you were thought of, to receiving a letter in the mail (USPS or email), a small gift from a friend, the list could go on and on and these are blessings!!
Just recently I received a blessing and it was an opportunity in coming a long side a young woman who like all of us at one time in our life was hurting and seeking things that this world cannot offer her, our friendship came about quickly and I know though no longer local as of last night she was heading home, in meeting her I know GOD has a plan...I am thankful to have met her and will be keeping in touch with her. I was able to speak into her life to let her know GOD loves her and that she needs to let HIM love her, that she has value...meeting her was a blessing, and I will miss her, but I am so thankful that she is not staying here and that she was able to see that running from things in her life is not the best way to handle things nor to heal. GOD I know has a plan for her life and in spending the last day with her, she blessed me with a gift that was given to her by someone who has been there for her and, it touched me that she would want to give this to me,
It says: Rejoice in the LORD always Philippians 4:4
Little did she know on how fitting that was, there is no greater thing to just do that..REJOICE in the LORD always!!
I said goodbye to her last night and though it is not forever, the blessing of having her as a friend is a treasure, in the FATHER HANDS she goes!! I am sure we will see each other again. Blessings come in so many ways and as I have looked around, they are more around then I thought they were....Have you counted your blessings today, if not take a moment or few, grab your journal or pen and paper, start writing, you will be surprised on what you come to know!!
I thank GOD for ALL HE is in my life, HE is full of surprises and blessings and is waiting to shower HIS children with them....nothing like a FATHERS LOVE, then to bless HIS children!!
Count your blessings and know your loved and worth all of them!!!
