"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus". Philippians 4:19

Life moves fast. Some times good things happen, and other times we face an attack of difficulty after difficulty. When the waves of trouble forces  us into the grime condition, we must not give up, lose heart, or stop trusting God. We are susceptible to be overwhelmed by the evils of the world.

There is so much to be thankful for, and so many blessings to count. We should never lose hope, and we must always find a  reason to be thankful. When we cross many hurdles in life and come to an end , our heart over flows with happiness.

"When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, 
   we were like those who dreamed
Our mouths were filled with laughter, 

   our tongues with songs of joy.Psalm 126:1-2


Count your blessings, recounting all the wonderful things the Lord has done for you.

So what are you waiting for? Start counting! 
  • “And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. Ezekiel 34:26
  • “Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful work ; Which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us, Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered. Psalm 40:5
A secret to happiness lies in counting your blessings, while offering thanks to God. Sing the song  thinking of all the blessings you have so far received from God.

When upon life's billows you are tempest tossed,
When you are discouraged thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,
And you will be singing as the days go by.

So, amid the conflicts, whether great or small,
Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey's end.

Count your blessings, name them one by one;
Count your blessings, see what God hath done;
Count your blessings, name them one by one;
Count your many blessings, see what God hath done.

It Really Works. I Like  to encourage you to count your blessings, specifically, one by one. The list will never end. It helps you focus on the positive things, and put off the negatives in right perception. Blessings are part of miracles in our life.

  • “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.Hebrews12:1

  • “The blessing of the LORD makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22
God be with you
