I am sitting in my apartment with my husband on the couch watching basket ball on our new tv, our dog, Alli, is laying at my feet. Its been a wonderful day and I am just sitting here counting my blessings and basking in them.
I am probably the happiest I've ever been in my life, everything has come together, God has blessed me and He is smiling on us right now, and I am thrilled. I've married the man God placed on this earth for me to be with, he blesses my life every second of every day, I have the most incredible parents there are, they've done so much for me, and now for Luke and I, we're undeserving most of the time, but they just keep being wonderful and I could not feel more blessed, thankful and grateful for them. They have been my constant in my life for almost 28 years, they're wonderful and God has been so good to them. My family is awesome, we spent a wonderful Easter afternoon with all of my family, we love each other, laugh together, and just genuinely enjoy each other, and thats rare I think. I have incredible friends...WOW did the Lord know what he was doing when he placed people in my life for me to befriend.
Luke and I are in this little apartment and, sure, we'd love to be ina house but for now, this is just fine, we're finally getting it in order, we are finally feeling comfortable in this little space, I feel like we've finally made it "ours". Through the financial blessings we've received with the wedding and gifts we were able to not only take and enjoy a wonderful trip after the wedding but we've been able to get some new furniture for the apartment that we needed and in doing so, Luke was able to get his new tv :)
Luke and I are both blessed with employment. Though its not what either of us would like to do the rest of our lives, we do have goals for ourselves and our future family, we know how blessed we are to have jobs, and we are so grateful.
Most importantly we have GOD. He loves us, He smiles upon us, He listens and answers our prayers, and He forgives us when we do wrong. How great is that? No matter what I do, my Lord will forgive me because I believe in Him, have Him in my heart and he LOVES me. WOW!
I feel renewed, rejuvenated. Life is precious. I am so blessed. THe emptiness I once felt in my soul is full. the questions I once had about my future, they've changed. I feel like I've found my optimism again. I am happy.
God is good. I want to share that with everyone! Count your blessings. YES bad things happen, sadness and hurtful things are there, we all mess up, say and do the wrong things. But sit in the quiet for a minute, look around, think just for a second about how good you have it. See how blessed you are? See how Wonderful life can be? See how much GOD loves you and wants the best for you and wants to guide you down the right path? Isn't that wonderful?
Happy Easter Everyone! God Bless you all!
