There is an old chorus we use to sing in church, Count Your Blessings. The song goes like this:
Count your blessings name them 1 by 1.
Count your blessings, see what God has done.
(Repeat and sing slower for the second verse.)
When I start off counting my blessings, they are "big" ones, like salvation, a good husband, wonderful children, and things like that. I do not make light of those gifts, but there are so many more that we might not realize. There is the blessing of hearing the birds sing in the morning, of snuggling under your covers cold night. There are many blessings that might be called "small" blessings. Thank you God for all the wonderful small blessings you have given me. Help me to give someone else a small blessing, Lord.
