As my daily devotion time, I'm going to write, instead of read someone else's, daily miracles. My hope is, that by doing this, I will enrich my journey and awareness of God in the little things in my life and also encourage others to do the same. I encourage you to share your comments and stories of things that you encounter along your journey.
Blessings,
Jennifer

Blessed

This morning I had the chance to sleep in.  For a long time, that has been a rare occurrence.  But, my schedule is finally getting regulated from my job change and it seems I now have some mornings free! 
Of course, I woke up at the same time this morning.  But, I fought getting out of bed for awhile. 
I got up and got ready for my day.  And, then, I went to church to work on some planning.  After that, I went to the library to get some video games my teen center "regulars" wanted to play. 
So, what does all of this mean?  As I sat here tonight thinking about my day, I realized that even when I have some free time, I want to spend at least some of it doing what I love- working with teens, planning for my time with them, and doing things to make my time with them the best it can be.  I am blessed to be living doing what I love, what I believe in, and what I believe is God's plan for me. 
So, where was God today?  He was reminding me that I live a very blessed life and I am grateful for each day.
Micah 6:8
The Message (MSG)
8But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do,
what God is looking for in men and women.
It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor,
be compassionate and loyal in your love,
And don't take yourself too seriously—
take God seriously.
Blessings,
Jennifer
