Be grateful for the little things

Be grateful for the little things.

The gift of life, family, friends, sound mind, imagination & dreams.

A few weeks ago, a friend helped list out some of the blessings I've experienced that I'd failed to acknowledge because I keep focusing on some things I've not yet experienced in my life.

Life will sometimes go contrary to our well-mapped out plans. In those moments, stopping to look back and take stock truly helps put it all in perspective. I know it does for me and I hope it will for you where ever you are in life.

Count your blessings, name them one by one

Count your blessings, see what God has done

Count your blessings

Name them one by one

And it will surprise you what the Lord has done

So what are you grateful for?

Looking forward

Hello and update

Hello and Happy New Year It's 2019 and I realise it's been a long, long while :) since I've posted anything here. A lot has happened in my life, but my heart has been coming back to this blog and the need to start writing again, so write I will. Writing is one of my first loves and I intend to revive this love using this blog :) To that end, I will start by putting up posts on things on my heart, challenges I'm involved in - currently doing a 30 Day Minimalist Challenge, reading As a man thinketh booklet by James Allen for 15 days straight - goals I want to achieve, amongst a few. Anyway, now I've put it out there I will be posting on this blog for 90 days straight. Love BelovedEsther

It feels like only yesterday when we were happily chanting happy new year and looking forward with expectation. Forget about what’s happened; don’t keep going over old history. Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new. It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it? Isaiah 43:18 What a challenging year it's been. From the natural disasters reported at the start of the year, to the current global pandemic, to the current fight for justice for the lives lost at the hands of those in authority. Faced with these uncertainties, and what we now term the new normal, many don't know how they'll make it through, but I'd like to encourage you to keep pressing forward despite all the challenges. With less than six months to go, there's no telling what you and I can accomplish in between that time. Don't give up hope, kee...
