When upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
Count your blessings, see what God hath done!
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
This song really reminds me to remember all the blessings I got from GOD in my life. Sometimes when I focus on my problems, I lose sight of the good things in my good life from HIM. I got depressed and lose perspective. That is when it is time to review all the reasons I have for rejoicing and get my perspective back again. I realized I often grumbled and complained when I was under the "cloud". I will try to count (again) my blessings instead. I have Jesus who loves me. Jesus died for my sins. Jesus has promised never to abandon me. I have a great family who loves me. I have great friendships with friends whose same desire to grow in God. I have great students. I have a great opportunity to be a teacher for more than 15 years. I am a part of God's family. Thank you, Jesus for Your great blessings in my life. I hope and pray He keeps molding me to be a blessing for others. I know it is not easy... but I will always ask God to give me wisdom to enjoy the days He always gives unto me.
