Blessings are like flowers. When they are fresh people prize them, when they wither, people forget them. How often do we remember the blessings and the miracles that are showered on us from heaven above and how often do we dwell on the misfortunes we are made to encounter throughout our lives. Undoubtedly, the list of the latter would be far too prolonged than the former. A popular Christmas Fable goes like this--Once a man asked God, "Why is it that during the good patches of his life he could see two pairs of footsteps on the sand, but during the times of trial and misfortune only one pair of footprints were visible." God replied that, during his happy times God had stood by his side, hence the two pairs of footsteps and during the times of trial, God had picked him up and walked the distance for him, hence only one pair of footsteps were visible. This story imparts a moral for everyone to follow. God's blessings are always with us. We just require the eyes and the senses to feel his presence.
I had the pleasure of starring as the Name That Tune show host "Gloria Reigns" in the Church's Christmas play-- A real blessing and a good experience for my nerves and stage fright :)
