Count Your Blessings! Updated

1-Minute Devotion for Tuesday, 8/11/26

“But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
    let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
    that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
    you surround them with your favor as with a shield.” Psalm 5:11-12 NIV 

The photo is of my daughter singing at her church in Houston, Texas. She didn’t know it at the time, but she would eventually meet and marry the man in the background. He is the keyboardist. Now they are the proud parents of my sweet grandson. Oh, the things God will do when we put our trust in Him! I’m counting my blessings!

I am adding this insightful and profound comment I received from Steve Rebus. I hope you will think about it.

“God’s blessings are often unfolding right in front of us before we even realise it… Sometimes God is quietly writing the next chapter while we’re simply living the moment.” Steve Rebus, iChristian blog

How to Stop Worrying

Quote of the Week for 3/11/26

“We would worry less if we praised more. Thanksgiving is the enemy of discontent and dissatisfaction.”
 Harry A. Ironside

“Although Harry had discontinued his formal education after the eighth grade, his organic curiosity, passion for reading, sharp memory, and never-ending study of history, literature, philosophy, theology, and the Scriptures drove him to academic heights. He was awarded honorary doctorates from Wheaton College and Bob Jones University.” GotQuestions.org

“Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.” Psalm 47:6

In His Love, Cindy
