For your consideration…
Our message today is about counting our Blessings. Each day we are reminded to think about all of the things we are grateful for. These, indeed, are Blessings.
But today’s message has a little different focus. It wants to remind us that we don’t all see the same Blessings. What might be a Blessing for me, may not be for you and visa versa. Also, what may be a Blessing for us today may be different than what we thought of as a Blessing in the past or even the future. For example, a boring day may frustrate us today but in the future we may feel very blessed to have a boring day.
Blessings are very relevant to our present moment. We are asked to be vigilant so as not to become so humdrum that we don’t notice them. The more Blessings we count the more Blessings tha will come our way. That is the nature of the Universe, energy, Karma.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…
-Affirm…“I am loved.”
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths. If it is easy for us, that is a Blessing. It is not easy for everyone.
-Count our Blessings,
What made me smile yesterday…
-A beautiful day. I have to admit that I love summer.
-Lots of errands done in my 4 hours off.
-Who knew that laundromats were so different…and expensive? Yesterday was probably the first time I was in one in over 30 years…lots of change literally and figuratively.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
