Recently, with the Thanksgiving holiday approaching, my thoughts have been turning back to seeing the blessings that are all around me.
God has so richly blessed and time and time again I take His great blessings for granted.
And then I return and as my thoughts focus on Him, my eyes are opened to the blessings He has given.
There is such joy in returning to Him.
There is abundant joy in seeing His blessings.
We are in a time of sharing gratitude on Facebook, Instagram and other social media platforms.
Many would frown upon this way of sharing.
But, I think it is beautiful!
I love that so many are taking time to share the things they are grateful for!
Here are some of the blessings I have been counting…
Time spent with these friends…painting pottery, hanging out, and talking scrapbooking.
I met this group of friends here in El Paso through a shared hobby and I have been so blessed to know them and spend time with them.
A Fall Party for my girls’ Explorers American Heritage Girls group.
Sunday afternoons spent relaxing with my husband and catching up on our favorite TV shows.
Sunday nights spent eating popcorn and watching AFV as a family.
My girl learning to cook and preparing a week night’s dinner all on her own (okay, mostly all on her own).
Hanging out with this girl on Tuesday nights.
What blessings are you counting today?
If you’re on Instagram, I invite you to follow along with my blessings as I share them using the hashtag #blessingsallmine and share your own blessings as well.
