We are all so much more blessed than we think we are quite often, Father. As we go through this day – and each and every day – may we ponder on our blessings…and credit them all to You! Amen.

Alright, I will admit I am most definitely not the world’s most prolific poet but I like doing it occasionally. Many of us have spent time with family today…and sometimes it’s easy…and sometimes it is not. Please bear with me…it really won’t take that long to read. Blessings on your day!
Family is a blessing
alike, both young and old
and some may choose to disagree
but if I may be so bold
I’ve seen too many people,
who lack someone to love
it’s best we look most closely
with guidance from above
Most families are not perfect
I’m sure you will agree
the good and bad, they all are there
and from most we cannot flee
Invest in those close to you
do so and you’ll be glad
there’ll come a day when they’ll be gone
and you’ll not feel so sad
For you took time to say
and be and do it all together
it may have not been easy
but for all you’ll be the better
Most things can be forgotten
but forgiveness and love’s the key
embrace your family with such
and in the end you’ll see
That family is a blessing
from our Father who sits above
with all the umpf that you can muster
we must hug and laugh and love.
Above all, have fervent* and unfailing love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins [it overlooks unkindness and unselfishly seeks the best for others]. 1 Peter 4:8 (AMP)
*This Greek word was used to describe the taut, stretched muscles of a runner winning his race.
