We were challenged in Church this morning to focus on what God has done, and is doing right now, not what he hasn't done. It seemed surprising that the blessing (shown above) also had the same theme. It was given and prayed with after the service. I had read One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp recently and was reminded of the restorative power of gratitude. This blessing reflects that and the wonder in the everyday beauty constantly surrounding us.
God has me sitting with contentment lately...being grateful for how and what is now is part of that process.
