The Blessing Bracelet

As I slide it on my wrist, I can’t help but think of how special it is to see, wear, feel my “blessings” always..

As l grasp the first beed, I’m thankful for our Dear Savior Jesus Christ, for whom without HIM my poem book would be empty pages.. Everything good comes from HIM. the blessings He has giveth, too many to list..

The second beed signifies my husband, for whom the past 30+ years has been by my side through good times and bad, you made me a mom of two beautiful adults.   You are always near my side, you make me laugh, your listening ear is always readily next to me.. I would be nothing without you.. 

The third beed signifies our church, where we worship each and every Sunday, where I was confirmed, our marriage ..  Laura, the years that we've known each other, you are the cornerstone of our friendship, no matter the changes that life has thrown us, our friendship has stood strong, with no worries, you are family to me and my family.. thank you for what you've done for us.. 

In life, we all need blessings, people who lift us up, there aren’t enough beds on my bracelet, to thank those who have touched our lives,  I will wear mine on my wrist every day as a reminder to live life to the fullest…
