I Am Blessed

I read an Elizabeth Berg book a couple years ago about a nurse who does home visits and one woman that she visited was very sick, but repeatedly said "I am blessed." I loved that so much that I typed up "I am blessed." as big as my computer would let me and then hung it on my fridge.

It's true. And it's also true that I sometimes forget that I'm blessed and just focus on the things in my life that I would like to change.

I am blessed to have caring family and friends.
I am blessed to have a job indoors that does not involve anything too gross.
I am blessed to have good health care.
I am blessed to have more than enough food everyday.
I am blessed to have a roof over my head and shoes on my feet.

Movie of the Day: It's actually a BBC tv show that I found at the library on Wednesday called The Vicar of Dibley. My former pastor Michelle introduced me to it a couple of years ago. It's hilarious. Right before the closing credits, it says: Bless you for watching.... Cracks me up!
