“Lord, may I always be awake and thankful”
Bless the Lord, O my soul
And forgot not all his benefits
These words invite us to stay awake
To the many blessings that permeate our daily lives
There’s great wisdom here
Our blessings only fully enrich our lives
When we’re aware that we have them
Imagine a friend inviting you to a sumptuous home-cooked meal
You enjoy it
But you missed the love that the meal represents
I’m embarrassed to say this has happened to me
How much more enjoyable the meals would’ve been if I noticed the love
This is true for all the blessings we take for granted
Take some time today to be aware of the blessings in your life
Really it’s a joyful experience because you discover the beauty of your life
Give thanks for it all
Even deeper level of joy opens up for you
For then
You become more aware of how much you are loved
