Blessed

How do people go through rough times without Jesus in their lives and Christian friends and family? I really wonder. It is hard enough when things are going bad with Jesus in your life. I can only imagine the intense pain without Him. I am truly blessed with a Savior who unconditionally loves me and forgives me. I would never put up with some of the stupid things I do. And on top of that, He blesses me with a wonderful family and such devoted friends. I was just telling one of my friends today that it is amazing how even in the rough times God only brings us closer to our friends and finds new ways to unite us. I have been truly blessed by my women's Bible study on Monday nights. Thank you Yvette, Jennifer K., Ashley, Jennifer M., Allyson, Melissa, Tamara, Amy, and Kristin (can you tell I went by sitting order). To my precious husband, with whom I fall more in love with everyday, and to my life long friendships, who with those long distance phone calls or e-mails brighten my day. I have a mother who still calls to check on me if I'm sick and two sisters that I could not live without. I just wanted to share that I am truly blessed and God is good. He continues to amaze me with all He allows me.

So true, so true. And now I am crying!! We are so blessed, and I daily take all of my blessings for granted. Thanks for reminding me!
