Here are two different responses to life—one saw the negative, the other the blessings. As I look back over life I am so thankful to the Lord. I thank God for the beauty of His creation, for every flower that blooms. I thank God for His provision, for friends and family. Most of all I thank Him for sending Jesus Christ to pay the penalty of my sin and that by His grace I heard the good news and trusted Jesus. I am also excited that one day soon I will share heaven with Him. If life is hard today, try counting your blessings. It works! —J. Fleming
O have I loved Him as I should, for all His blessings free?
Praise God who giveth naught but good, for He is good to me! —C. Breck
