'Countless Blessings'

Rating: 2.2


I stepped outside, I heard the birds
I could not wait until I heard their soft tunes
They were singing to me as I drank my first
Cup of coffee, for God sent them to me
For he knows how very much
His creations mean to me

As my thoughts turn away from the birds
To the maple tree in my front yard I thought
As I gazed upon its’ beauty
“You will finish opening your foliage tomorrow”
The next day they opened up so beautifully displayed
God’s way of saying “see my child you too can be renewed
Like this tree”

The grass green and lush cool upon my feet
The multi-colored rose moth in bloom again

I gaze at my dog who is soon to be a mother
How happy she must be
For soon the lil pups will be suckling
Making little whimpers
Making new little personalities
And yes building up little tempers

All the newness around me reminds me
Constantly of our Father’s daily renewing love
For these wonders are all countless blessings from above!
