sheer blessing

 

blessed by my Creator, my husband, my children, my family, my friends...blessed beyond all measure. To the point I feel like I cant breathe for the sheer measure of blessing that is being poured on, over and into my heart, my life, my family.  I just want to cry out "Abba! Father! Please no more!" I am going to burst.  

Have you ever felt that way? Where the blessings of the Lord were too numerous to count, too full for your heart to take anymore that you just wanted Him to put it on hold? So much that you wanted to cry out "Lord Please no more goodness from your heart! I really am feeling overwhelmed with all of this!"???? I really believe that this is meant to be a daily occurrence. To really experience the fullness of joy that the Lord has for me daily. The Lord has shown me that my eyes have just not been wide open and that my heart has been looking at blessings through my eyes and not His.

When I talk about being overwhelmed with blessings I don't mean stuff or money....things that will fade and pass away. I don't mean big huge things...I just mean the things that have touched my heart. A note of encouragement in the mail from a friend, a call saying "I am praying for you", a meal that comes from the most unexpected source, a hug from your little one when they don't know how much momma really needed that right now, a light touch from your husband that sends love shivers up your spine, help in all sorts of amazing ways, a nap, a smile, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, deep pure laughter, abundance of peace, joy, and love.  I am blessed beyond words. From the depths and overwhelming fullness of my heart I just want to say "Thank you Lord...thank you."
