365 Things.

The hardest part of this project is sorting through the daily endowment of blessings to find the one that inspired me most.  Although I don't write daily, the gift I do highlight is a compilation of 365 different blessings not necessarily in any order.  All the blessings are good gifts and remind me of my greatest blessing, His grace and compassion, His love.

36. State of Being Safe

Last night I checked the locked doors and checked again to be sure I was safe. My heated blanket was waiting for me after I turned off the lights and headed to bed. 

Matthew was the first one up in the morning. Once he heard me stir, he came in to greet me.  Good Morning

We had breakfast, a bath, and t.v. time. Then we went to the gym, the store, and the gas station. We hurried home for our scheduled appointment with the mobile auto glass company. We will eat lunch, go to the movies, and probably the mall today.

And I guess there is no risk of injury or death I need to worry about. No bombs flying overhead or the sound of Indians screaming. The moments play on in my mind as though something may happen, but the reality is I am safe and we are safe. We live in a safe neighborhood, a safe city, a safe country. Today I am aware of it and grateful.
