We are each blessed every day in big ways and small ways, with our lives, our children, our homes, our jobs. This past month we have been more cognizant of those blessings, whether because we have been looking for them or maybe because since Mark's accident we realize more and more how precious each day and each blessing is. Below I wanted to just show you a few of the blessings that we have taken pictures of.
15 1/4 lbs of fresh Salmon, given to us the very day it was caught, from a dear couple at church, who are very generous. DH finally got to use the fillet knife that he bought for fishing.
Some other very generous friends of ours have blueberry fields and they allowed us to come and pick blueberries. B#2 is a very fast picker so we have lots of blueberries in the freezer and we made some blueberry jam. Earlier in the summer, we had the opportunity to go to another farm to pick strawberries so we have those in the freezer ready to eat or make jam with. All of this for free.
You might think this a strange picture. But we were blessed one day when we checked the mail and found a check from the grandparents to put towards fixing up one of our bathrooms that was in need of some TLC. We purchased a new toilet and got a big roll of remnant flooring. After doing the bathroom we still have lots leftover so we can use it elsewhere.
What are some blessings you have received lately? Post me a comment and lets see what the Lord is doing in each of our lives. Maybe we all just need to stop and look for what He is doing in our lives.
