Blessings

Blessings. Sometimes they are subtle like still breath rising from your chest. Or eyes awakening from a long rest. It could be the smile from a stranger's lips. Or the laugh of a little one in bliss. The simplicity of life is a blessing. For in God's loving arms, my soul is resting. With peace and joy, he is my heart's content. He paints the sky and swirls the clouds to my amazement. The wind reminds of His presence. How near I am when I wander in the desert. And though night bleeds blackness, he brightens the stars. I am most grateful for life's little blessings.
