tiny blessings

in the past 24 hours, i have been reminded that God moves through us several times. last night, i was laying in bed counting my blessings and talking to the big man, when i got a text from my best friend that simply said, "you mean the world to me, j". i am so blessed by the people in my life.

this morning as i was leaving for work, i was surprised by my four-year old niece, aaliyah, who snuggled up in my arms. kids are so cute early in the morning. she is never awake when i leave for the office. the house was quiet and we had a few brief moments to catch up. she told me that daddy got her some new books and i asked her if we could read one tonight. she said, "yes, let's read the one about God". with tears in my eyes, i said "absolutely".

i believe that the little things in life are the greatest blessings. i had a smile on my face the whole way to work this morning. it is so easy to get down about what you don't have, but if you take a look around and realize what you do have, you will see that God moves through us every single day.
