Every day that I live singing and proclaiming the good news that He saves is a day lived in completeness.
It is a day that I am at peace within my spirit.
It is a day that I can rejoice.
Those are the days that I see the blessings that He so generously gives.
I see the opportunities, the calling, and the mission, my mission among the messes and the mundane.
I have lost my way in doing that recently and He is calling me back.
He is calling me back to Him and to His word.
Today, I am taking a first step by acknowledging His work in my life, His great blessings to me that I experience every single day.
I am so sorry for the times that I overlook these blessings.
I am choosing to stop wallowing in my own guilt and move towards the forgiveness He gives.
Today is a new day to sing and proclaim!
Here are just a few of the blessings I am thankful for today…

Coming over from Ann’s – I was blessed by reading your list today. Especially about being called back to Him and to His Words – always needing to be called to this in the midst of our busy lives.
