I am blessed. Plain and simple.
I make Elijah's baby food and I made up a good batch tonight and for the realization that I had enough counter space to do what needed to be done hit me. I am blessed.
This afternoon I got to have lunch at a restaurant in town with Andy, Elijah, and Andy's parents. The ability to go out to lunch and do it with family and people that I love and who love me is a blessing.
Worship this morning with our congregation was beautiful. We are doing a series right now on what it means to be the church and today's topic was love. We have a family with a little boy struggling with some serious health issues and we were able to pray for them. Another lady shared a "love testimony" about how God has changed her heart about someone. God is moving. We are blessed.
Last night we got to be in the hospital with a family we love as their loved one passed away. Just to be there with them in that time and to love them is a privilege. We are blessed.
Going to the farmer's market, running on the Greenway trails here, driving kids to camp, having people to love and care for....I am blessed.
Sometimes I needed to be reminded of how much I truly have and need to not take if for granted. I am grateful and needed the reminder. After a few months of struggling internally I am ready to move on and grasp the good things that God has in store for me, for my marriage, and for my calling.
I am blessed. So are you. Do you need to be reminded?
