The Little Miracles Count

People have frequently ask me if I am feeling discouraged because of Michael Ray's stroke. It feels like a good day to share a bit of my world. The truth is that everyday I count my blessings, thank God for giving me strength and vision, and then I go to work. Life is good and I am blessed. I see miracles everyday. Last Saturday night I drove Mike and our son to their church meeting. I watched as my 14 year old son stood tall walking next to his father. I saw the miracle in each of Mike's steps. After the meeting I drove them to get a smoothie together. I stayed in the car so they could have time alone but, when I peeked in, I and them laughing and talking together. Another miracle. As a family we enjoy sunsets and rejoice in new days. We know that difficult moments pass and that kind words matter. We are learning life's lessons and striving to become a little better each day. We are blessed with incredible people in our lives who give us strength when we are weak. If you fill your days seeing miracles, it is hard to spend much time being discouraged. So… count some blessings and speak some kindness and know that the Ray family is wishing you an amazing day!
