The words of this hymn came to mind this morning…
(as I sat in my quiet spot, sunshine streaming in…..
(as I sat in my quiet spot, sunshine streaming in…..
& birds greeting the day outside my window)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Make me a Blessing”
Give as 'twas given to you in your need;
Love as the Master loved you;
Be to the helpless a helper indeed;
Unto your mission be true.
Tell the sweet story of Christ and His love;
Tell of His pow'r to forgive;
Others will trust Him if only you prove
true ev'ry moment you live.

Refrain:
Make me a blessing,
Make me a blessing,
Out of my life
May Jesus shine;
Make me a blessing,
O Savior, I pray,
Make me a blessing to someone today!

~Dr.’s office for Natty
~City inspector for the new hot water heater we had installed last week
~My BIG opportunity today: helping my sister & brother-in-law as they move into their new house here!
~My mom, who is also here helping
~My 3 wonderful nephews….
~Not to mention all the people I might run into…..at the store….if I meet my family for lunch, all the people in the restaurant …..and the list goes on & on…..
Who can you bless today?
