Blessing Quotes

To eschew joy in the blessings of the present while longing for that someday thing that will make us complete is the greatest folly and waste. For by measuring what we have and who we are by some imagined future, we rob the present, and thwart the very moments that would lead us into the destiny of our dreams.

Just to be is a blessing. Just to live is holy.

O thou who kindly dost provide
For every creature's want!
We bless Thee, God of Nature wide,
For all Thy goodness lent:
And if it please Thee, Heavenly Guide,
May never worse be sent;
But, whether granted, or denied,
Lord, bless us with content. Amen!

'Tis not for mortals always to be blest.
