Lucky

I was taking pictures of my students today.  The sun was setting and it gave a golden glow to the already stunning complexion of my beautiful girls (and boys!).  As I was looking through my pictures and seeing not only the beauty of the children, but the amazing backdrop that is our school grounds, I heard a quiet voice asking me, “Do you know how lucky you are?”

And I do.

Which of these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.” (Job 12:7-10)

Everything was created through him; nothing—not one thing!— came into being without him. What came into existence was Life, and the Life was Light to live by. The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness; the darkness couldn’t put it out. (John 1:3-5)

The Lord reigns! Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it; let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them.  (Psalm 96:10)
