Blessings

I was thinking today just how truly blessed we are...We have our sight, we can touch, taste, smell and hear. These are just a few things that we take so for granted everyday unless we have a problem with one of these. As anyone with any kind of illness will tell you it brings these things and many others into a whole new light. It helps you to understand more of how quickly your life can be taken away from you, but as a Christian our lives are not really taken away because we go from this life into the marvelous glories of our heavenly Father whom we have waited so long to see.
I have also realized how blessed I am to have two absolutely amazing and handsome nephews that are both extremely healthy...Praise God!!! As well as a brother, sister-in-law, mom and dad and many other family members that are very healthy. God has blessed us in more ways than we can count and a lot of these we take for granted on a daily basis.
Being away from CBC has also made me realize how truly blessed I am to have an awesome best friend and lots of other great friends at CBC...As well as many amazing professors who are there every step of the way to help you if you need it, they have so much concern for each of the students and it is so evident. Also just how blessed I am to have an amazing adoptive family at college who loves me. All of these things we take for granted all to often and sometimes God has to bring us down to build us up so He can show us just how blessed we truly are.
