I recently saw a quote from Willie Nelson that said, "When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around." We have many blessings in our lives, but sometimes we don't take the time to notice them. If we take time, we can begin to see our blessings, beginning with the forgiveness from God!
When our sins are erased, we are blessed. God provides us with the opportunity to have our sins forgiven. Through accepting the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we are redeemed. We have a new life where our sins have been removed. When we begin to look around and count our blessings, we can begin with God's love, grace, mercy, and the forgiveness that He gives!
We are blessed by being forgiven through God!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the forgiveness that You have given through Your Son. Help me to always recognize the blessings in my life. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
