Did You See God's Blessings Today?

How did God bless you today?
Try to reflect and count the ways.
Did you see God's footprints in sand
realizing a blessing was from His hand.

He blessed me with time with Esther Sue,
walking in the sun with her changed my view.
Children notice small things of God's creation,
being with them gives us much elation.

Beautiful red bird caught my attention
with thoughts of God to mention.
If He cared so much for a tiny bird,
any fears of mine were so absurd.

Storms with tornadoes came through
reminding me life is like that, too.
We must realize God is standing near.
Only He can take away my fear.

So my day was filled with many a blessing,
It's all God's doing, I'm professing.
Look around and see what He's done,
Have life victorious through God's Son.

I like this one and I could relate to it too! Yesterday, I saw like a hundred red breasted sparrows gather in one tree right besides my window. It was a beautiful sight. I also keep seeing tornadoes come my way, but God is my storm shelter :) Keep writing wonderful things!

Beautiful poem. I saw God's blessings too this day. As you know, my husband was diagnosed to have Cancer Of The Tongue. Today, emails and phone calls from friends and relatives, mostly his, came pouring in to give their moral support and offering of prayers for my husband. "When God closes the door, he somehow opens the window"
