Multitudes on Monday

Count your blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.

Such a simple suggestion. I always thought I was being thankful, but now I know how easy it is to rush through life without ever stopping to notice how very blessed I am. Since starting my Gratitude Journal in February, I have become "addicted" to counting; from brilliant sunsets and birds in the morning to small children on my lap and meeting friends in the grocery store. It really is a wonderful thing to stop and take notice of the Lord's blessings in my life.

  1. It's not an easy thing to do...and that is very sad. I seem to have fallen off the bandwagon again. I must take time today (and every day) to count my blessings. Thanks for the encouragement.

    Rachie, hop back on it's not like it's rushing down the road or anything. Although, you're missing out on listing a whole bunch of great stuff!
