St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day is celebrated annually on March 17th, the traditional date of St. Patrick's death. The day also commemorates the arrival of Christianity to Ireland. We have Irish heritage, and we wear the traditional green, but we don't partake of the "festivities" associated with many of the day's celebrations. However, celebrating the arrival of Christianity to a country is a great thing to celebrate.

Whether people believe it or not, a good dose of Christianity and folks getting saved would turn this world upside down and spin it on its heels. Yet, I digress. So, it is St. Patrick's Day and I am in an "Irish" mood. With that frame of reference, let's get to today's word.

Today's word is an Irish Blessing that says, "May your troubles be less and your blessing be more. And, may nothing but happiness come through your door."

I pray that for everyone; that you will find more blessings than troubles and far more happiness than sorrow. And, not just on St. Patrick's Day, but every day. As a child of GOD, I can tell you that He daily loads me with blessings innumerable and joys that I couldn't tell in a million years. He loves me when I am happy. He loves me when I am sad. He loves me when I am good. He loves me when I am bad. He blesses me because He loves me.

I hope you have a great St. Patrick's Day. I pray that GOD blesses you with more than you could ever think or comprehend. I hope you thank Him for it all.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
