I have had a song going through my head all day today. It was “Counting My Blessings” by Seph Schlueter. As it ran through my head, I did in fact reflect on all the blessings God has given me – family, friends, faith, home, food. Then I started looking closer and being even more grateful. My children live so close and I get to see them a lot. I have a wonderful relationship with all my siblings. I have many friends that I have met in very different ways. I could go through relationships and specific blessings in each one. That in itself would take forever. And that is the point of the song. If I truly ponder the blessings in my life, I would run out of numbers and out of time. I felt grateful and humbled. Here are some of the lyrics:
“God, I’m still counting my blessings
For all that You’ve done in my life
The more that I look in the details
The more of Your goodness I find
Father on this side of heaven
I know that I’ll run out of time
But I will keep counting my blessings
Knowing I can’t count that high”
I Found God today reminded of the constant blessings He gives me.
