Double Blessing


Hey all.

Ever get doubly blessed?  Ever get a real double dose of God's blessing?  Sadly for some of us, it is tough to remember getting one real blessing in our life, let alone two of them at the same time.  But sometimes the Lord shows up in a big way and pours us a "double" shot of blessing.  HE fills the cup up to the top!  Have you ever been there?  Can you recall when you just had this amazing sense of being blessed?  Like a double blessing! It is pretty awesome to say the least isn't it? 

I was doubly blessed recently with the birth of my first two grandchildren.....twin boys!  A double blessing in an amazing way!!  I am blown away how much love you can feel and how blessed you feel!  It is so humbling and special.

But check this out.....I was thinking about what should we do in the moment when these obvious blessings are poured out in our life?

We should be grateful and thankful when something is such a great blessing, like two healthy little boys and a healthy mommy.  But, I don't ever want to miss the fact that God gives us blessings every single day as well.  Every day of our life, we are blessed.  The Lord's blessings to us our "new every morning" (Lamentations 3:23).  Let's not forget the daily blessings we receive every morning.  The blessing of HIS love and HIS grace.  I don't want to only feel blessed by the Lord when something really big happens.....I want to acknowledge and feel it everyday. 

But sometimes.......it comes in a big double dose which is pretty cool!!
