Reflecting On A 1000 Blessings

Well I have reached my 1000th blessing.  I reached it a lot faster than I ever would have imagined....1000 seemed like and is a very large number.  This whole process has completely changed my daily view of life.  Looking back I see that I allowed myself to focus on the frustrating parts of my day, which were actually a very, very small part of my overall day.  Due to my poor focus, I was blinding myself to all the blessings that God gives me on a daily basis.  I know that all good things come from God, but I thought those good things were big things not the little everyday things.  I now see that EVERYTHING good is from God, no matter the size or significance. 

I have found through this challenge that I have to choose my focus everyday all day long...I have to choose to see the blessings from God.  Due to this I am going to continue with my Blessing Blog for a bit longer.  I really don't know how long I will continue but I feel right now it is what I need to do.  Feel free to follow along with me and/or start your own list.  If you do start your own list, I would love to hear about how it has affected your life.

Thanks for reading about my blessings and encouraging me throughout the process.  I hope that you found it as uplifting and eye-opening to the blessings from God that I did.
