aware of blessedness

Thursday August 23^rd, Ephesians 5: 20 At all times and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father. One of the true joys in life is to be aware that you live in a state of blessedness.  To be able to look around and truly see that all that you have and all that surrounds you is a gift from God and is a blessing in your life, even seeing a blessing in some of the things that do not seem so good, the hard times, the struggles and yes even the pain.  Not that everything is a blessing from God, but sometimes, just the ability to make it through today in spite of all the rough terrain is the blessing.  Call upon the Lord in everything in your life, and watch your life change.
