Giving Thanks and the Forgotten Blessings

  

In this new year, after reading John 6, I decided to kneel down and give thanks to God for the "small number" of opportunities He has given me to share His love during this time of physical pain. 



A miraculous thing happened when I opened my mouth and began to give thanks...the list grew and grew and grew as I thanked God!


I couldn't believe how many opportunities He has given me to love and share His good news with people. It was as if God was reminding me one by one of the multiple opportunities I have had and am having. 




I ended my time of prayer astounded and encouraged. 


I was reminded of the miraculous work of God, that when we give thanks to Him for what we have, He can reveal the unseen or forgotten blessings.
