Health and happiness wishes have become somewhat of a trademark blessing from me when the clock of time turns over a new year. I also tend to write these same wishes to someone when I am signing a birthday card for someone. I suppose it can become so easy to sometimes take our health and life for granted. Studies say that often many don’t fully appreciate things until they experience a near fatal situation which somehow spurs one into deep appreciation mode.
Sometimes we just seem to get so lost in our daily lives that even those of us with best intentions and inner gratefulness can also tend to let these blessings be taken for granted. We all have our moments in life when we sweat the small stuff when we know very well that those problems we are groaning about are miniscule compared to worse things in life but human nature will make us focus on the immediate obstacle rather than overlooking its insignificance compared to a tragedy.
Although I am always grateful for my life as it is, I am no different than the majority. I admit I’ve had my moments of ‘freak out’ but I don’t dwell on things and eventually I shake myself out of those moments. And maybe because I have survived some life altering moments and cheated death once or twice I did become one of those newly awakened people even though I thought I had previously never been ungrateful.
The bottom line is if you analyze things right down to its smallest form, you can wish you were rich and you can wish for materialistic objects but none of it is any good to us if we don’t have our health. All the money in the world can’t make us better if we are fatally ill and we would give our last cent just to be well again. So when I offer someone my wishes I always wish in the highest power and so there is nothing better than to wish health and happiness to someone because there is simply nothing better in this world that we could want for.
So once again, I would like to wish you all health and happiness for this new year and forward.

Thank you for sharing thoughts that should make all of us look at ourselves, and at those who we love so very dearly, in a way that is more appreciative of the gift of life. As believers in Christ, we know that our lives are terminal, even upon our conception. I thank God that He has found such a person as you to write the feelings of your heart – so that others may feel your honest and sincere feelings for others in this world, believer and non-believer alike. May our Lord Jesus richly bless you.

Thank you kindly for your beautiful blessings. I am just a person who wishes good for others and likes to share my stories to enlighten others. People tend to share good info so the more we put out there and the more it spreads, it helps to make the world a better place. 🙂

Consider how the following scriptures relate to you. We have heard the song, “The Anchor Holds.” Try to understand how great that anchor is, as it relates to the relationship that exists between God and you. (Jer 1:5, Gal 1:15, Eph 1:4). God established a purpose for you and your life before you were born; His anchor has been faithful in holding you where He wants you to be. Remember to
look at your life and you will find it with the context of those three verses. Also consider your place in Ephesians 4:11 for the purpose of Ephesians 4:12. Many blessings to you, my special Sister.
