Count Your Blessings Thursday - The Triplet

In an effort to better keep my attitude positive and joyful I've decided to give myself some specific blessings to watch for each week.

This past week I was keeping an 'eye' out for three things:

A blessing that made me laugh
A blessing that made me pray
A blessing that made me quiet

There were many blessings that fulfilled these things over the week.  I'll share one for each:

A blessing that made me laugh -

The little boyz of course, the funny things they say.

A blessing that made me pray -

The death of a family member, one who lived in my neighborhood, one whose marriage was lived before me for many years (they were married for 62 years).  This man and his wife were a beautiful picture of a healthy marriage, a beautiful picture and example to me.  Obviously, the death was not the blessing, but the reminder of their lives and the impact that they had on me and many others is the blessing.

A blessing that made me quiet -

The pines.  God spoke to me through the pines.  It was amazing and beautiful beyond words, my only response was quiet.

For this week, I'll be looking for blessings via friends.
