God's blessings shared
continuing with the thoughts of property, i was thinking today about blessings, with which i am once again overwhelmed. my thought was that sometimes i/we talk about blessings in a possessive or quantifiable way. "God has blessed me with this..." "i have that..." we sing "count your blessings." and that's a wonderful discipline.
today i'm thinking about blessings however, not as something i have, but in something that God has or is and that God has shared with me/us. it's not nearly as tangible or quick to describe, but it involves the blessings of life, relationships, experience of... grace, peace, joy... i'm thinking about the mystery of God present among us which is something wonderful, awe-some and blessed.
