Receive
I receive with a glad and grateful heart.
I am blessed in so many ways. With open eyes I behold all the ways I receive the goodness of God in my life. With an open heart I feel gratitude for my senses and the ways that goodness reinforces my awareness of my connection with the Divine.
Life’s simple moments become heaven on earth as I receive my blessings. Each sunbeam that touches my skin warms me. Every drop of rain prompts me to think of all the ways my thirst is quenched. Each person who welcomes me lets me know I am not alone. Every animal I connect with informs me that I am a valued member of a diverse world.
I need not strive or even ask to be blessed. I am in awe when I realize all the wonderful ways I receive the goodness of God.
They will receive blessing from the Lord, and vindication from the God of their salvation.—Psalm 24:5
