If something bad happens later to myself or someone I love, it doesn’t mean I wasn’t blessed earlier... Obviously, I don’t want bad things to happen to those I care about, but we all know that they will at some point. Nobody goes through life with no pain.
So, the question isn’t whether bad things will happen – we know they will today, tomorrow, or in the future. The question is whether we are remembering all the blessings that God has bestowed on us in the past and right now.
If we keep a grateful heart and remember our many blessings, we will handle the rough times better. And even in the rough times, there are often blessings around us that we miss when we aren’t looking for them.
Remember your blessings. And remember the One who gives them so abundantly!
“‘“The Lord bless you
and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine on you
and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.”’ (Numbers 6:24-26)
