Daily BITUB- “Where are my blessings?”

I read a comment on a post where someone said, "Where have all the blessings in my life gone?"  I thought about that and realized how many times I've heard it said and how many times I've said it myself.  Looking for those blessings amidst the chaos that life sometimes deals us clouds our vision from what is right there in from of us. You know we take some things for granted. We may even try to justify it by thinking it's ok because everyone does, but that really is just a way to let ourselves off the hook. We are very good at feeling sorry for ourselves. Even better about making excuses for why we didn't get the job, didn't reach our weight goal, didn't complete the task. Don't get me wrong, life can be a mess sometimes. A mess of questions and a plea to God to stop the madness. It's hard to comprehend it in the moment that there is a light at the end of this tunnel, that we can be the light in the tunnel, and God is always lighting our way. We forget that we can grab hold of things we often overlook. A memory when all was well, our family, a friend, a job, our children, a roof over our heads, a comforting gesture from someone, an opportunity to give back, a moment of silence, an opportunity to pray. Just because we are missing them doesn't mean God took them away. We simply must try to take the moments that move us, that guide us, that give us strength and purpose... Take those every day  moments and hold them tight, and chances are you'll be able to say, "There are my blessings, right in front of me where they've always been". 

Believe in the Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is that you realize the beauty and blessings that are ever present, even when we fail to see them. May you find comfort in knowing that and have faith that God will carry you through this as He has carried you before and will again.

Have a blessed day everyone.
