One gracious blessing after another

Okay, I know I talked about being grateful yesterday but, it is Thanksgiving week, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and I can't help but want to give thanks for all that the LORD has done and given to me. I don't have to look very far or very long to see blessing after blessing after blessing. The mere fact that I can sit here and type this morning is a blessing that I will NEVER take for granted. NEVER.

But, there are countless others, which I am not going to try to sit here and list. I just wanted to say, "Thank you, LORD, for ALL the many, many blessings in my life." You would truly be hard-pressed to find anyone more blessed than I am. And, again, not because I deserve it; GOD blesses His children just because He loves us and just because He can.

Today's word is John 1:16, NLT, which reads, "From His abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another."

Even on those days when things aren't going my way, when it seems that there is one calamity after another, if I will just take a second and think, I will realize how blessed I am. There are so many things that we take for granted: walking, talking, cognitive thinking, breathing, hearing, seeing, and the list goes on and on. Yes, there will be bad moments, maybe in each day, but for the most part, there is LOTS to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Give thanks to the One Who gives one gracious blessing after another.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
