I’ve decided to break my current black mood posts with something entirely different, a list, not just any list but a list of my top 10 blessings for which I am grateful for:

1. Steve, sometimes he just makes sense, not right away, but eventually

2. my salvation and a God who is slow to anger, I can test anyone’s patience

3. my health, I may be rickety but I’m still kicking

4. my soft heart, without it I would be _______well let’s just say, someone else

5. my friends, they allow me to be me, good, bad, ugly and indifferent and they like me anyway, totally weird

6. Canada, living in a country where I can go to bed at night and know I will wake up in the morning exactly where I went to bed, providing I wake up

7. my family who teach me grace whether I like it or not and I rarely like it

8. God who saw fit to equip me with a sense of humor, who knew I’d need it someday

9. a network of prayers that I am a part of, there is nothing sweeter than watching God move in the lives of the people you pray for, nothing

10. CCC, for being the place where Christian kindergarten flourishes with love, compassion, guidance, encouragement support and “time outs” when necessary

I invite you to add to the list with 1, 3 or all 10 of your own personal blessings for which you are grateful for.
