I have been contemplating all of our blessings we have received in the last couple months. Its just a subtle reminder that we are children of our Heavenly Father. He knows each one of us, and only wants happiness for each of us.
We have had little blessings... and when they all come together, they are for the bigger picture. We now have food on the table, sufficient for our needs. We have extra money coming in due to the jobs Jason has now. 2 jobs... that's right. The first one is substituting and the second one is PSR. The 1st one isn't as regular, but it helps a great deal! The 2nd one is part time, but pays really well. All in all, we should be making our bills now without any problems and even catching up!
We have been given a few of the necessities recently and have been ever so grateful. Things have fallen into place that I would never have even imagined would. We now have food to last us throughout the winter and that has NEVER happened before. Its basically the staples, but that's ok. We also will be able to afford to stock up on our food storage which will better our situation as well. I guess if the Zombies do take over, it can be a party at the Jones!
Blessings come in disguises. some come with broken windows or furnaces. Others come with gifts or kind words from a friend. I do have to say that my blessings also come with huge trials placed before me.
Nothing has come easy for us. I have had to earn everything I have. I wouldn't change anything. I am hoping that from my learning and trials and my example, my kids will learn from them and grow above and beyond what I can provide them with.
I know we are blessed. The Lord will not give me more than I can handle. Although, I do think He "toe" that line!!!
