Blessings

I have been thinking about my blessings of late. I am blessed with salvation, friends and family.  I have a most amazing family.  We are five in number, my parents, sister, her husband, and me.  We are not perfect by any means, but we know how to have fun together, and best of all, we know Jesus.  I like to spend time together.  We cannot spend much time as a group of five, but I spend a lot of time in the fellowship of three.  That would be my parents and I.  We do many ministry events as a threesome.  I am glad for those times.  As we share God’s love with others it deepens our love for each other. 

We also must do work projects together.  I have chores to do; and while they are boring, we must do them to survive.  I am not fond of sweeping the floor, but I do not imagine my mom is either. 

We do a lot of reading together.  I love those times as we enjoy good books together.  Some books are inspirational, some informative, some are just fun.  We all like to read, so sharing this joy of reading together is uplifting.

Best of all we do daily devotion review after breakfast each morning.  This gives us windows to peek into each other’s souls and see God’s work there.  It is a time of accountability that cements our souls together.  I am blessed and thankful God plucked me from oblivion and brought me to perch in the His family.  The blessings of God are immeasurable!
