BLESSED

I’m not sure how I’ve gotten here. I’m not sure how so much time has passed since I’ve thought about it, but it has….

I am so incredibly BLESSED. Not because I have things or money or a good job, although I am blessed by those things as well (and I hope to use them to bless others in whatever way I possibly can). But I am BLESSED because God has put so MANY wonderful people in my life.

I am BLESSED by Baby Girl and the way that only God has worked out all of the details surrounding her little life so far. Her life could have been a story of heartache after heartache, of long months and years waiting for her to come along, but it wasn’t. God knew my heart could not handle that right now. Her little life could have been a story filled with physical pain and sickness on my part, but it wasn’t. God knew my heart could not handle that right now. Baby Girl’s story is one of incredible JOY. It is one of THANKFULNESS. All of my deep fears regarding trying to get pregnant were completely obliterated because I never had to face any of them. Not ONE of them has come to fruition in any way shape or form. How could that be anything other than God? I am so THANKFUL for this gift.

This has been my ‘I am extremely BLESSED’ thought for the day. What is yours?
