"Don't just count your blessings; make your blessings count."
Written in 2004 by Johnetta Smith --- Florida
I like to use this quote as a call for action. Many people count their blessings but too many fail to use their blessings. If you can sing, then sing the song of your heart. If you paint, then paint the colors that speak to your soul. If your blessing is an open heart and a humble ear, then listen and help others heal. Everyone has a blessing, use it and be the positive change you are searching for.
