Life can be crazy, but God brings us the peace we need. If only we slow down long enough to experience joy in God’s unexpected blessings.

Ponder, dream, and sit with Jesus, asking, “Which way, my Lord?”
Life can be crazy, but God brings us the peace we need. If only we slow down long enough to experience joy in God’s unexpected blessings. We never know what our Lord will bring, but we do know it will be good.
Here we are in the last month of dear sweet Summer. Still pondering, stretching, being. And soon, the following season comes swirling by, but for now, let us rest right here. Right here in the middle of August 2023.
What better time to sit and be still and listen at the feet of Jesus?

God always has sweet, lovely surprises for us – if only we can be patient. We must slow down and open our space, schedules, and minds to provide a room to receive God’s blessings – so that we can see and listen for them.
These blessings can be in the most unexpected places and the most mundane ordinary moments of life. This is where God often puts lovely precious blessings.
Here we can find the beautiful that He tucks away for each of us.
How can we open ourselves to receive God’s unexpected blessings?
There is so much to be thankful for in our daily lives; these are all unexpected blessings that bring us joy.
Do you feel it too? Pure gratitude for all God does for us in our unexpected places? We have a choice when trouble comes along – which it always does – we can turn our woes and weary over to God and rest in His peace. Because we know our God is good and He commands the unknown. We can trust in our Holy One.

Deborah, I appreciate God’s blessings in “unexpected places” like a rainbow after a rainstorm, a butterfly landing on a bloom right in front of us, and a fragrant breeze when we thought the season was spent.
Lisa, yes, I do too. I saw my first fall leaves this morning out my prayer room window. What a blessing. I love how God shows us His transforming in real time. Blessings to you.
