So Blessed



Well, well , well, I can officially call myself a blogger. This is Todd by the way. This is the first time I have done this. Betsy is very hesitant to let me do this as I am not as gifted in the area of overrated things like correct spelling, punctuation and grammar. I have enjoyed so much reading Betsy's blog and thought it was about time to let people hear from her other half.
Last Sunday Madelynn was at her Maw Maw's house so it was very quiet not having the 2 year old running crazy in the house. Betsy was playing the piano and singing some old Hillsong's music. Zach and I went outside to sit on the bench. We listened to Betsy sing and play the piano. It was so incredible and peaceful. As I sat outside, held my son and listened to my wife sing I felt like all was right. I felt like the luckiest man on the face of the earth to have such a beautiful family. It was such a beautiful picture of God's Grace and Mercy in my life. To be so blessed despite all the wrong I have done. To feel so peaceful. To feel so hopeful for the future despite my past. And to be so excited what else God has in store. I could go on and on describing the sense of pride I have for my family and the thanksgiving I give to God for all of His great blessings. Take time today to sit back, look around , count your blessings and give thanks to God.
