Sometimes I get caught up in thinking that being blessed is having everything in life and things are perfect. This is far from the truth, blessings come in many forms. They come in the little things, like the giggles from my one year old niece when she runs to me with open arms or long walks on my family farm. Blessings also come in the hardships in life. When I am hurting and weary God gracefully blesses me with His faithfulness and strengthens my faith in Him. By God's grace He blesses me with joy in trials, peace in anxiousness, hope in sorrowful times and forgiveness when I sin. God is blessing me with being able to honestly say it is well with my soul.
Trials are a blessing.
James 1:2-4
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
I am blessed. This statement has never been more true for me, for God has blessed me greatly.
