“A good memory is one that can remember the day’s blessings and forget the day’s troubles”  Author unknown

When did you last stop long enough to reflect on the blessings of your day?

You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You welcome me as a guest, anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings.  (Psa. 23:5; NLT)

Here’s a mid-week break from the regular flow that I thought you would not only enjoy, but also would be a source of encouragement.  A little encouragement for the so-called “hump-day” would seem in order, right?

One of the really neat emails I get on a fairly regular basis is “The Simple Truths Newsletter” by Mac Anderson.  From time-to-time I have forwarded flash movies that he has made available within his newsletter.  (Remember Johnny the Bagger from the 10/12/07 DG?)  Well, he sent out another little movie earlier this week entitled “May You Be Blessed.”  Maybe it’s just where I am at the moment, but it sure blessed me.

Anderson writes, “A few years ago Kate Nowak awoke in the middle of the night and took her pen and paper from the nightstand. She said a gentle soul-whisper poured forth the words to “May You Be Blessed.” And the rest, as they say, is history. From the words of this beautiful blessing, Kate created a short 3 minute movie with the goal of blessing one million people who watched it on the internet in one year. Since then, millions around the world have watched and have been inspired by Kate’s words…including me. This beautiful movie…is not about religious beliefs…it is about joy, gratitude, appreciation, kindness and love. So sit back, turn up your speakers, and watch ‘May You Be Blessed.’ I guarantee you’ll be blessed by doing so. So just click on the link below, but…make sure you share it with your friends, family and co-workers. It’ll make their day!”

What more can I say?

Prayer Power
Lord, please use this little movie to bless and encourage each of our readers this day.  Let this be a reminder to each of them about just how special they are to You.
