Count Your Blessings

Too often I find myself caring too much about the next thing I want to buy and waiting for the next big thing rather then focusing on the present. Kind of like a whinny two year old saying, “give me, give me, give me!” It’s nice to be reminded of everything I am blessed with and to count my many blessings. Once I start doing that I notice a big change in my mood and actions, I’m a lot more happy and more concerned about others. It’s a good feeling, I like it.
The greatest and best blessing ever given to me is of course my sweet little family. I would do anything for them.

Here is one of my favorite songs. You should read it.
1.When upon life’s billows you are tempest-tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

  • Chorus
    Count your blessings, name them one by one,
    Count your blessings, see what God hath done!
    Count your blessings, name them one by one,
    *Count your many blessings, see what God hath done.
    [*And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.]

2.Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,
And you will keep singing as the days go by.

3.When you look at others with their lands and gold,
Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;
Count your many blessings—*money cannot buy [*wealth can never buy]
Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.
4.So, amid the conflict whether great or small,
Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.
Have a fabulous Sunday! xoXox
