God Blessed Me Today

God blessed me today. He allowed me to wake up and take the first breath of this new day. I woke up in a warm dry bed and was able to make myself a warm morning meal. As I put on my shoes to start my duties this morning, God reminded me of my many blessings. In my thoughts are my wife, children and grandchildren. My home, my land and my job. I thank God for these blessings and for the blessings I am not aware of. So as I start this day I thank God for his generosity, faithfulness, mercy and grace. With his help I will try to make this day Holy and perhaps others will see God through me. Amen

This is all so good, right, and true. This line struck me: "I will try to make this day Holy." I so love that line! That line could change the world. <3

You are right P.S. If people would try to be just a little Holy we would be shocked how the world would change.
