Dear God,

Yesterday was filled with blessings, so many that I fell asleep counting them in all their glory.  My heart was full, my mind was full and my soul was full too.

At the beginning of this year celebrating my decision to live through last year, you and I declared this the year of gratitude.  As I prayed my prayers last night, I whispered my thanks to you.  This morning I am still thinking about it and extending my appreciation to you.

Not every day brings such miracles, answers to prayers, delights, hopes and dreams but every day does give us opportunity to count the gifts in our lives.  One day may be very difficult filled with loss, sorrow and even anger but that day can persuade us to look deeper, much deeper than surface count.  We will always find something that leads us back to you.

Thank you,

dearest God,

for blessing

my life yesterday.

Thank you

for the ways

you are

giving me

to bless others.

I am

thrice blessed.

Yours, Andrea
