Blessed and Kept

"The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you;" (Numbers 6:24-25 NKJV) We are truly blessed by God. Just look around at not only your physical surroundings, but also having love, friendships, and support. God also protects us and keeps us, and He has amazing power and wisdom! His favor and love for us is as big and bright as the sun, always smiling at us. Best of all, when we make a wrong turn, God has amazing compassion for us. He mercifully forgives us, consoles us, and goes ahead and provides for both our needs and wants. And, God is gracious to us in that our 'sufferings' have a limit on them, both in intensity and in time limits. He never gives us more than we can handle, even though God seems to sometimes push the limits. God also never puts us through any trials without reason. Yes, we are blessed, kept in his sight with His face shining on us, and given amazing compassion. What joy! Love, Beau
