If you have the opportunity to go to a beach, or even a sandy park, take a handful of the sand in your hand. Feel it as it runs through your fingers.

Grab another handful of sand. This time, hold on to as much of it as you can. Pick up a few grains at a time. Just think about how many grains of sand there are in your hand and multiply it by an infinite number.

Those grains of sand are a drop in the bucket of the number of blessings we have been given. It’s so important to count our blessings. There are days when it is too difficult to even consider a handful of blessings. Losses occur and we can feel run down.

Count today as you read this as one blessing in a beach full of blessings.
