ANGELS AND BLESSINGS

I have been busy decopatching angels for Christmas and thought that as it was a dull, grey December morning, they would make a good blip today, along with my Blessings Jar, which I started at the beginning of the year.

I haven’t managed to put something in every day - that’s not because I haven’t been blessed, but because we have been away. I do take my little Post-its with me and try to remember, but sometimes I do forget - what a good job God doesn't forget to bless me!

Anyway, there are two special people who are going into my Blessings Jar today - one is a Blip friend and she knows why! Thank you Yvonne and Jon.

Feeling a bit frustrated because my knee is quite sore after walking quite a lot yesterday - so I am resting more today and waiting for a call from the Physiotherapist so that I can check that I am still doing all the right things. It can only get better!

Enjoy this song from “Hansel and Gretal” by Humperdinck, sung by Charlotte Church live in 1999 - and whilst listening, perhaps remember loved ones who will be far away at Christmas.

When at night I go to sleep,
Fourteen angels watch do keep,
Two my head are guarding,
Two my feet are guiding;
Two upon my right hand,
Two upon my left hand.
Two who warmly cover
Two who o'er me hover,
Two to whom 'tis given
To guide my steps to heaven.
