Counting Blessings

Recently I have been thinking a lot about the blessings in life;
this week in particular has found me reflecting even more.
There was a terrible tragic accident in the town that I work leaving
two families mourning for their children that had drown in the river.
They are not alone in the mourning process as this has effected me greatly.
My heart grieves with the families; trying to make sense out of this only creates more
questions and anger.
I will pray for these families for strength and peace that only comes from God healing hand.
For myself I will try to focus on my blessings in life.
I love that old time hymn that says "count your blessings name them one by one; count your blessings see what God has done".
My blessings are great and sometimes I need to remind myself of them!
So for today I am counting my blessings.
