We all need showers of blessings

Over the past few years I have attend many showers (some wedding showers but mostly baby showers) and while I was calm and collective on the outside inside I felt I was falling apart. For the most part I kept my feelings of jealousey and bitterness to myself. ( I will admit though my family has heard their fare share of my pitty party of why me) It's often bitter-sweet hearing the news of friends and lovedones sharing their exciting news; I can often put on a good front but the minute I am alone I fall apart. For those of you who have never longed to be a mother or have a family it can be a hard emotion to explain. I've learned over the past 6 years of attending baby showers and waiting on the Lord that miracles do happen. While Nick and I are still waiting on God's perfect timing I was reminded tonight of what on "on time " God we serve. I was made aware of a couple who have longed for a child much like Nick and I and after years of failed attempts God has shown up and blessed them abundantely; just at the right time. Have you every wondered where are your showers of blessings? Well in all honesty I wonder this often. I know deep down I am blessed beyond measure; I have been blessed with more than any one person should but I often wallow in my own self pity and wonder when will I be blessed; when will my big miracle happen. As I sit here and write this blog I am reminded of the old gospel song "showers of blessings." There shall be showers of blessings. This is the promise of love. There shall be seasons refreshing, sent from the Savior above. Showers of blessings. Showers of blessing we need. Mercy drops round us are falling, but for the showers we plead. So why I learn (often times the hardway) that God's timing is always best. I will remeber the showers of blessings that befall on me daily sent from my Savior above. Love, Phyllis
