A friend of mine (Deb Batten) once said to me::
"Not every day is a good day, but everyday has good in it."
The GOOD in each day are blessings you can see in the moment. We'll talk about the other "blessings" another time--the not so good things that happen to us. Believe me, they can be blessings in disguise.
So, here's my challenge to you.
Take 10 minutes and write down all of the obvious blessings you have been given before you read this post.
If you like, share your list in the comments section.
Here's mine::
