Lake Deaton at Home

I have a new favorite song; I’m so Blessed by Cain. 

A lot of time, the word “blessed” is used to mean “I have everything I need” or “God gives me everything I need.”  Kind of like posting a picture of a new car and adding the caption #blessed.  But that is not what this song is about.  It is about being covered by God’s grace and mercy at all times, on the best days and the worst days. 

The woman in the story for today is having a worst day, and it seems to be getting worse as she talks to Jesus.  But by the end of the story, she knows she is so blessed on her best and worst days.  And she is blessed because no matter what category she is put in, she is still a child of God. 

Mark 7:24-37

The Way of Peace Prayer: Jesus, I choose to follow your Way of Peace.  Lead me to one person that I can love, give hope, and bring your peace today. 

Blessings – Kristyne
