I have been blessed beyond measure! 🫶🍋

It’s incredible to sit back and reflect on how truly 'blessed beyond measure' I feel in this season of life. When I look at my home, my family, and the peaceful sanctuary we’ve built, it really hits me: this is what I prayed for. It reminds me of the journey from 'Then' on May 6, 2016, when perhaps these dreams felt like distant hopes, to 'Now' on May 9, 2025, where they are a beautiful, tangible reality. For me, being 'blessed beyond measure' isn't just a phrase; it's a profound sense of peace and gratitude that permeates every corner of my existence. It means realizing that the deepest desires of my heart have been met, not always in the ways I expected, but in ways that are far more perfect than I could have imagined. It’s about having a 'happy place' that’s not just a location, but a feeling created by the love and connection within my family. One of the most powerful habits I’ve cultivated is learning to 'count your blessings' daily. It’s so easy to get caught up in the daily grind, but taking a moment each day to acknowledge the small and large joys truly shifts your perspective. Whether it's the laughter of my loved ones, a quiet moment in my home, or simply the warmth of the sun, these simple acts of gratitude make me feel truly 'grateful beyond words'. This practice helps me recognize the 'abundance of blessings' that are always present, even through challenging times. I remember when I first started praying for this life, for a family, a home, and a sense of belonging. There were moments of doubt, but holding onto hope and faith was key. I often found comfort in thinking about 'bible verses for new blessings' or simply making a 'declaration of blessings' over my life and home. It’s a powerful thing to speak into existence what you hope for, and to trust that those prayers are heard and answered in divine timing. Sometimes, the blessings are 'unexpected blessing' — little surprises that remind you the universe is conspiring for your good. The transformation from 'Then' to 'Now' is a testament to perseverance and faith. Seeing my family grow and thrive, witnessing the love we share, truly makes me understand what it means to be 'blessed beyond what I deserve'. It’s a humbling and uplifting experience. My hope is that everyone can find their own version of this peace, their own happy place, and their own sense of being truly blessed. Keep praying, keep hoping, and most importantly, keep counting those blessings!
