"Thank you Lord for your blessings on me..."🎶
This was the video I was talking about in the last post of the babbling stream running below us :)
"Now I know I'm not wealthy, and these clothes, they're not new;
I don't have much money, but Lord I have you.
And to me that's all that matters, though the world cannot see;
Thank you Lord, for your blessings on me!"
But actually today I am wearing new clothes, and by most standards I am wealthy... how easily we take it all for granted. I have a wonderful house with a porch that I can sit on in the mornings... and this morning I'm thankful for the birds chirping and the warmer weather. (Well it felt warm to me until I looked at the temperature and realized it was actually about 35*F) ;)
There's a song in our church hymnal titled "One Thing I Can Do."
All of that is so true, but this morning it just struck me as the "one thing I can do" as being thankful!
Maybe I can't change my emotions right now, but I can sure choose to not focus on them if they are causing me to struggle!
