About Thanks and Giving!

Today I came across this very touching story of a little baby boy named Cohen ( you can read his story at http://www.inthiswonderfullife.com/p/cohens-story_01.html) He lived for only 12 days and finally rest peacefully with Jesus in heaven. His story made me cry because I know it must be very painful to loose someone you love so deeply especially your own son. I know I got this message not by coincident, it is God Himself speaks to me.
He wants me to always be grateful and find myself in peace with everything that happens in my life. Especially this year, where so many unwanted feelings and negative situations at one point in my life happened.
I need to stop thinking of negative sort of feelings because in the end God knows what is best for me and this year
He gave me this beautiful baby. Her name is Chloe. She is such a blessing for me and I should embrace all the moments I have with her.

Thank You O Lord for this wonderful message. I should not take anything for granted and be thankful always.

Thank You God. You are so good to me. This has been a very special year for us and I am blessed to know You.

Now to all of you, I hope you are surrounded by all the people you love and be thankful for all the blessings in your life where ever you are today.

We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we’d have faith to believe

‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know that pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
It’s not our home

‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise

This is a song called “Blessings” by Laura Story. It is a beautiful song that reminds us to always be thankful for every little things and not just the obvious blessings.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends!
