It has been 25 urs of painful back and health problems keeping me sidelined from life. Next week, I hope that God sees fit to allow a hip replacement to let me stand straight and participate more in the life God has given me to live. Without my health issues, I never would have started writing music. This has been the biggest blessing I have received over the last 25 urs. Almost makes it worth it....lol...God knew how to bring beauty from ashes.

Oh, if we could only live every day with the knowledge that each one of them is smack in the middle of a blessing season. Surgery or no. Stress or no. Worries or no. -- Blessing season. -- Counting blessings, living a life marked by thanksgiving is the secret to joy, is it not? -- Thank you for this today, Bev. Thankful for the blessing of you, friend. :) Sorry you've had a rough few days. Continued prayers for your recovery.

I have learned to stop viewing blessings as only things that I want but also things that God allows because He knows more than I do.

I love your take on them. They are gifts from God. We should receive them as gifts from our good, good Father. Our family (the boys do it sometimes begrudgingly) talk through "gifts" in our days. They may not understand it, but it's good to see the blessings God places in our days. Thank you for sharing this. You've got me thinking about blessings, my response, and on seeing God's fingerprints in my days.<br /><br />Hope you're recovering well, my friend.

I love how you look at blessings and are learning to say "thank you". Unexpected blessings or even ones that come because of a time of recovery can be hard for me to accept. I am a person who does things for myself until for some reason I cannot. Keep teaching us all you are learning. It is perfect for me!
