Soul Food, My Walk With God
BLESSED: divinely or supremely favored; fortunate.
Isn't that a beautiful definition?
I go to 5am prayer at my church and on the way there this morning I realized just how blessed I am. I mean I KNOW I'm blessed but it's like I appreciate it or something. I don't know how to describe it.
It's not STUFF. I'm not interested in stuff. I mean it's nice and all but that's not why I'm blessed.
I'm blessed by my walk with God, I'm blessed with a wonderful husband and great kids (even when I wanna knock them out lol)
I'm blessed with wonderful friends and family.
I'm SO thankful!
After prayer I turned my ipod on and it's always on shuffle and this song came on: Ohhhhhh!!! It got in my heart and I've been STUCK ON IT!!!!!
God has been SO good to me. Last night Tony got sick and I had to take him to the ER. All I could do was pray that it wasn't the same problem he had last year.
I was at Bible Study when he called me, but it was amazing to me that the Word I got, kept me from being nervous about him not feeling well.
The speaker was saying at one point that if you keep your mind on Jesus He will keep you in PERFECT PEACE. That's why its SO good to KNOW scripture. Keep a scripture in your heart so when things come up, you go to that scripture. Repeat it, whatever you have to do to keep God on your mind. I was at peace the ENTIRE time.
I thank God for it.
That's all lol. I'm just BLESSED and I realize it. I'm thankful for it and not taking it lightly.
I'm not perfect, just striving to be the woman God wants me to be. Keeping my life lined up with the WORD!

Thanks for the encouragement and reminder!!! It’s so easy to forget that despite what comes at us, we’re truly blessed. Loved the part about “lining up with God’s Word”. You said a “Mouth Full” and said it ALL!

I know that’s right!!! We are all so blessed and I believe all the craziness of the world is allowing many of us to realize just how blessed we are! So many people facing trials and tribulations, but if you know GOD and have a personal relationship, you realize you are not alone! HE’S GOT YOUR BACK!! Know when can do you like he can! Praise Him! Praise Him! Thanks for the beautiful message!

Having the word in you is important. When emergencies come up we usually don’t have time to find a Bible and then a scripture. Keep growing in the word it will always serve you well!
