blessed days of summer. {day 1 of 14}

the past couple days i have really been struggling with discontentment about some situations that i have been in for a while. my thoughts and feelings have been focused on myself and the things that i cannot change. which the worst place my focus could be. i've been convicted of this and God has slowly been reminding me (or i've been slow in recognizing which is probably more accurate) of all the blessings that He has given me and of how He is continually working. i need constant reminders of these things, especially when i am in the place where i am surrounded by the tricky things.

so, for the next two weeks before i return to school, i want to share something everyday that i am thankful for or a blessing that i have been ignoring. in the middle of the mess, i forget just how big i am blessed. i am praying that God will continue to open my eyes to all the blessings He gives, including ones that may not seem like one at first glance. His blessings may come in many different forms and i long to have His eyes to see them, to experience them to the full, no matter the cost.

a daily celebration of blessings. rehearsing my trust in the God who never fails. will you join me?
