A Year of Blessing - February 5, 2010



It has been 8 months today since my back surgery. I'm still not able to lift great weights, but I AM able to mop the floor! I got the kitchen mopped yesterday, and the dining room today! And although that may not sound big to a lot of people, it is HUGE for me.

Thank you father for making the most menial task seem like a great blessing!

Blessings are all in the perspective.

Ephesians 1:3-8 (New Living Translation)

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.

Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.

So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.
