Unexpected Blessings

Wednesday Week 1    December 2

Templet for daily reading Week 1

Now you are walled around with a wall;
   siege is laid against us;
with a rod they strike the ruler of Israel
   upon the cheek.

But you, O Bethlehem of Ephrathah,
   who are one of the little clans of Judah,
from you shall come forth for me
   one who is to rule in Israel,
whose origin is from of old,
   from ancient days.
Therefore he shall give them up until the time
   when she who is in labor has brought forth;
then the rest of his kindred shall return
   to the people of Israel.
And he shall stand and feed his flock in the strength of the Lord,
   in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they shall live secure, for now he shall be great
   to the ends of the earth;
and he shall be the one of peace..

~~~Micah 5:1-5a

Question – Do you miss the unexpected blessings of your life because they are so small?



Prayer Thought

Lord, You set in motion the salvation of the world in an unexpected and small place. Help me to find today blessing in a small and unexpected place.

Amen
