Blessings

How we overlook blessings in our life. Well... maybe we notice them but do we acknowledge the Blesser?
I went to our ladies fellowship last night and left a little later than I wanted. I love spending time with my friends but I knew that if I wanted to get up this morning to go running, I'd have to be in bed soon.
I arrived home and went to bed, after I kissed my DH goodnight; it was 10:00pm by the time I was in bed. I asked the Lord to wake me up at 5:30 because I knew I wouldn't be able on my own. Sure enough... He did. Blessing number 1!
I was outside, starting to run and appreciated not having to run in the slush like yesterday morning... blessing number 2!
As I ran, the sky was dark and I could still clearly see the stars, just then, one fell from the sky... sigh.... blessing number 3!!!
What I loved the most about blessing number 3 was that it helped me feel God that much closer. It was going to be a special day. ... Blessing number 4!

Bible Way to Heaven

1. Recognize your condition. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). No one is good enough to go to Heaven on his own merit. No matter how much good we do, we still fall short. 2. Realize the penalty for sin. For the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Just as there are wages for good, there is punishment for wrong. The penalty for our sin is eternal death in a place called Hell. 3. Believe Christ died for you. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). Christ's great love for us was shown when He died on the cross to pay our sin debt. 4. Trust Christ alone as your Savior. But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23). For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans 10:13). Everlasting life is a gift purchased by the blood of Jesus and offered freely to those who call upon Him by faith.
