Sometimes I'm amazed at how blind I can be to the blessings in my life. God has surrounded me with people who love me and who have been given instructed tongues (Isaiah 50:4) which they use when speaking to me. And to think that I don't even notice most of the time! It astonishes me that I do not see the active hand of God on their lives, shaping them into mighty men and women for His Kingdom. Sometimes I think I walk around with my eyes closed, for surely He gave me sight many years ago. It's my fault alone if I do not choose to make use of it. How smart would someone look walking around with a blindfold on just because they decided that they didn't feel like seeing today? Thank you Jesus for all of the many companions and friends you have placed in my life. I thank you because I know that a three-stranded cord is not quickly or easily broken. (Ecclesiastes 4:12)
Interesting post; I like the picture. I actually wrote a song called "Cord of Three Strands" not too long ago, and you can check it out here (http://settingapartchrist.blogspot.com/2011/09/cord-of-three-strands-new-song.html) if you want.
