Too Busy to be Blessed...Never!

I’ve been busier than a…well, I’ve been busy. So many things going on this time of year, but the demand on my time has largely come from me trying to manage my blessings! Last Saturday, along with 20+ others, I worked on the luminaries for the Live Nativity…some three miles of them I was told. What a blessing to have that time of fellowship and accomplishment with others. Sunday morning worship was a tremendous blessing…Beulah’s Children’s Christmas program was, I’ve been told, the best one in years. I don’t know about that, but it was great! The singing…the speaking parts…the message…all done with precision and the end result was powerful! Then Sunday evening I was blessed with a wonderful compliment when someone told me I was a “great fit” for the church here. Wow! Then on Monday I attended a meeting…now I will confess that it is rare that I am blessed by a meeting, but this was a district youth leaders meeting. What a blessing to meet with others who want to equip and encourage the youth in our churches. The economy may be lagging, the weather gloomy, the outlook bleak…but our God still sits on the throne and walking with Him the future looks bright...and the blessings abound! Now I gotta go make room for more blessings…covenant group today.
