May Blessings

I need to get in the habit of writing my blessings as I go. As I shared yesterday in my May goals it has been a difficult month and so I am struggling to remember all the good that has happened, but I know God has blessed us. So, here is what I am thankful for this month.

• Watching Jim comfort and weep with a Brother who was hurting
• Jamey growing in his love of reading, writing and art
• Lillian turning 4 years old!
• Lillian learning to do homemaking activities
• Reuben getting better at dancing
• Jamey growing in being a big brother, watching him play with all his siblings and comfort Samuel
• Reuben sharing with Gabriel
• Gabriel holding hands when we pray at the table
• Reuben growing in communication skills
• Gabriel learning to dance
• All of the kids exercising with Becca
• Learning about suffering for Christ
• Samuel turning 1 month old
• Gabriel turning 18 months (I forgot to write a post)
• Jim turning 31
• Getting back into reading the Bible
• Going to Book Club
• Having Sisters I can talk to who encourage and pray for me
• The power of prayer
• God helping Jim and I get back on track in making our marriage our priority
• Good intense conversations
• Community Group
• Andy and Shannon Robinette
• Amanda Murrell
• Dawn
• Ashley Wells
• God's sovereignty
• God answering prayers 
• Being able to encourage Hilary
• God using everything
• God bringing revival in our home

I know there is more than this, and I remembered more than I thought. Perhaps it's because God uses all things to bless us, even when they are challenging.

How has God blessed you?
