We Are Blessed…For Sure

   I spent a lot of time this morning just thinking over the things I have seen and heard over the past few days.

   Each morning we listen to Dr. Albert Mohler, President of Southern Seminary in Louisville, KY. He has a podcast that tries to make sense of events in the world of today, in light of a Christian worldview.
(I would recommend it to anyone who wants a distinctly Christian take on current events). It is here:

   At the other end of our daily spectrum there is always the evening news on the TV. In spite of agreement or disagreement with the bias in which it is delivered, it does let us know the things that are going on in our world.

   So this morning I thought about:

   Political Elections

   LGBT Issues in this country

   Virginia Tech and its legendary Football Coach, Frank Beamer, as he retires this year.

   And all of the above in a 30 minute walk in the neighborhood..

   Here is what a verse from today's reading has to say..Psalm 127:3

   "Children are a gift from the Lord;
    they are a reward from him."

   Now there is the important thing to consider.

   Mayre and I have been blessed by our Three (and their's)

   Dwayne in his Woodlawn School mode

   Donna with her daughter in "just look at that!" time

   Doug with his wife Dawn and their "circus troupe".

   We are Blessed (with a capital B)

   Thank You God

   And, lest I forget, They all could not do all they do without :

   Karen, Noel and Dawn

   3 winning combinations, and we are blessed to have them all.

   and I'll think on those lesser things tomorrow...
