Count Your Blessings
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3).
Some of our readers may be looking for full-time or part-time employment at this time of year. I thought the following statements were interesting, and while they won’t secure secular employment I think they are worth considering in regard to our spiritual life.
If you want a full-time job with benefits, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.
If you want a part-time job with no guarantees, COUNT YOUR TROUBLES.
When I was a young person we used to sing a chorus that went like this:
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
Count your many blessings, see what God hath done.
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.
