I cannot remember when the last time was that I felt so extremely blessed. Or better said when I paid such careful attention to how many blessings I have. Case in point My father was hospitalized this week and as soon as I sent up a prayer for support and reassurance it was delivered. First I has a mother in law ready and willing to come keep my children on a moments notice for me to be able to transport my dad to the hospital. She also agreed to keep my children without hesitation overnight. She is a huge blessing on a regular basis. Then as we were sitting in the hospital lobby awaiting admission and dad's room to be cleaned in walked one of the sweetest staff people from our church. He not only stopped and asked what was going on but, prayed for my dad right there in the lobby. ( Bringing us both to tears) Then as we waiting longer and it seemed as though we would be there forever another staff member from our church arrived and also ministered to us. As the time wore on in the hospital I received so many messages on my cell phone that people were praying for me and my dad. At one point they were coming so quickly I could not type back to answer them before another would appear. I am also blessed with a gracious and kind husband that for all kinds of reasons should be angry or at the least miffed because I was unable to go on a trip with him due to this unfortunate circumstance. Instead he has so understanding and supportive and has continued to be that way as the days have gone on. I have such dear precious friends and family that there are not words to tell them. But I heard something tonight I a country Gospel song that helps in some way say what I am feeling. SHE LOVES... She loves her God first and foremost, She loves her family, she loves her friends she loves her church. she loves her husband she loves the fact that she is so blessed and she loves that HE loves her more than she deserves. He blesses us exceedingly abundantly more than we can think or ask for. Thanks to all who have been such a blessing to me during this time and continue to be a blessing to me each day.
