Thank You God,

Again I got to wake up singing. This time it’s ♪Counting Every Blessing♪ And I am Lord! Thank You.

♪Ooh Ooh I was blind, now I’m seeing in color I was dead, now I’m living forever I had failed, but You were my Redeemer I’ve been blessed beyond all measure♪

I used those very words yesterday. “We’ve been blessed beyond all measure.” And we have. In SO many ways!

♪I was lost, now I’m found by the Father I’ve been changed from a ruin to treasure I’ve been given a hope and a future I’ve been blessed beyond all measure♪

Thank You Blessed Father. The very practice of counting every blessing was introduced to us so very long ago. Thank You for the work You’ve been doing in each of us over the years that we would truly learn to “count it all as joy” (James 1:2).

Here, from The Voice. Verses 2-4. “Don’t run from tests and hardships, brother and sisters.As difficult as they are, you will ultimately find joy in them; if you embrace them, your faith will blossom under pressure and teach true patience as you endure. And true patience brought on by endurance will equip you to complete the long journey and cross the finish line- mature, complete, and wanting nothing.”

Most Dear and Blessed Father God. I am truly depending on You and Your Word of truth and promises to deliver us from this current trial in ways we could never imagine.

♪I an counting every blessing, counting every blessing Letting go and trusting when I cannot see I am counting every blessing, counting every blessings Surely every season You are good to me♪

Yes Lord. We are standing on and leaning into our trust and faith in You!

♪You were there in the valley of shadows You were there in the depth of my sorrows You’re my strength, my hope for tomorrow I’ve been blessed beyond all measure♪

Thank You Father. Praise Your Lord. Use us as only You know is best. Loving. Needing. Trusting. And wanting You. And of course, counting every blessing! Amen.
