i AM BLESSED!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In dealing with day to day problems, it is easy to think about the problems-how to solve them\u2014and just generally obsess about them. I am often reminded that no matter what I face, my BLESSINGS far outweigh my problems.<\/p>\n

Today I had to find a new doctor\u2019s office a little distance away so we went early to be sure we were not late. Thank goodness our i-pad directed us there 1 hour early and we had time for lunch. As we drove down a little access road from the doctor\u2019s office to a couple of restaurants, we saw a lady sitting alone on a curb as we drove by. Coming back from the restaurant, we saw she had a sign<\/p>\n

I dropped my husband off at the doctor\u2019s office\u2014then realized I did not have my wallet\u2014so headed back to the restaurant. Just as I got back to Applebee\u2019s, I realized my wallet was in another bag I had with me.\u00a0I was relieved—but more than that, I realized I had come back by that lady for a reason. I found some money in my wallet and headed back to her. My heart was so touched when I looked into her eyes and saw the hopelessness. I still tear up thinking about it. As I handed her the money, I was impressed to hug her and talk to her a little. In that hug I felt in her hopelessness, despair, pain, defeat and gratitude.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I am so blessed. I have never experienced not having a safe place to sleep\u2014not having food and plenty of it. This experience reminded me that so many in our world have NOTHING! But for the grace of God, I could be in that position too!<\/p>\n

How about you? We need to Count Our Blessings and always remember to pray for those not as blessed as we are.\u00a0As they say in our church–<\/p>\n

God Is Good All The Time\u2014and All The Time God Is Good.<\/p>\n
