For several weeks I've been meditating on blessings, those received and those to share with others. As a new years begins, what a fitting time to remember or realize how much the Father loves His children, and the blessings that can not be lost.
* salvation
* eternal home
* crown of life
* Holy Spirit
* purpose
* peace and hope in Him
My goal for the new year is to daily acknowledge and give thanks for the blessings I receive from Him. I also want to bless others in the opportunities He affords. As the old hymn says,
"Count your blessings, name them one by one
Count your blessings, see what God hath done.
Count your blessings, name them one by one
Count your many blessings, see what God hath done."
What a great year ahead for us all if we focus on His many blessings and are willing to serve as a blessing to others.
