How does the Lord love me?

8/4/11 Let me count the ways. Enumerating God’s blessings in my life keeps me focused on His goodness. That focus feels my heart with thanksgiving. A thankful heart brings peace.


Recent months have been a bit frayed if not totally unraveled. The above path was what brought me peace. This week I have begun to see that even past events that seemed too ugly to be a blessing are indeed just that. I just need to have my heart open wide in gratitude to allow God to bring the “beauty” in. Therein lies the “peace that passes understanding.” (Philippians 4: 7)
