God's greatest blessings can never be taken away...

Last night, my dh and I watched In His Steps. We'd read the book years ago, but had never seen the movie before. Although not as good as the book, we still really enjoyed it. A pearl of wisdom spoken by the pastor, so spoke to our unemployment situation right now:

"Sometimes God's greatest blessings come to a man when he finds himself stripped of all the temporal securities he's always depended upon, so he can fully enjoy the thrill of childlike trust in Almighty God."

As well, this came today in my email today:

"The heart is rich when it is content, and it is always content when its desires are fixed on God." ` ~ Miguel Cordero-Munoz

May you have a blessed day enjoying the simple pleasures of life...yet most of all, may you enjoy the richest pleasure of all...that of the grace and fellowship of Jesus Christ!

"Surely you have granted him eternal blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence." ~ Psalm 21:6
