Little Blessings

Even when life holds many challenges, it's always good for ones eyes to be opened and behold the little blessings God gives from His hand of love.  These little blessings often come in the most simple and unexpected ways, yet when received with a heart of gratitude, they bring refreshment and renewed endurance to "run the race with patience."  

Here are some of our "little blessings" from the past months:

Our thoughtful little Buddy drew a picture in chalk of his Aunt Kathy picking her favorite flower:  the sunflower.

A friend surprised me with a fresh bouquet of flowers on my desk at work.

Our Bible study group is fabulous!  Having fourteen or more godly ladies gather around our kitchen table to study the Scriptures and pray together is a tremendous blessing.  This is true fellowship in Christ!

And last but not least, we enjoyed a lovely visit with a dear, godly couple we hadn't seen in several years.  Their encouragement and words of wisdom were very timely for all.

Thank you, Lord, for all these blessings!
