Counting Blessings

She said "It was a blessing
from God that brought you to me."
I told her that seemed to describe
the situation perfectly.
Honey you might have said it
was tea for two or good luck
or the hand of fate that
brought me to you.
But you chose to believe it
was a blessing from God
and I choose to believe
that you are a blessing too.

Sometimes we fail to see the blessings.  Looks like you have not failed to see.   Good write.

JM..this is without a doubt, one of your
finest statements of devotion and love that
I have seen come from you...Without question!

(smiles) Oh James, I too believe deeply it was a blessing from God, for He has something in plan for us all and all He wishes for is your happiness! (big hugggssssss) I pray every day that my dream girl Joanna will be mine, sweet friend, this is so lovely, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Blessings come in many forms, many unkown ways, Blessings are all around us, we just have to look  close enough, through the heart and not through the eyes!
