The blessing of the Lord brings [true] riches,
And He adds no sorrow to it [for it comes as a blessing from God].
Proverbs 10:22 Amplified Bible
***
If one should give me a dish of sand,
and tell me there were particles of iron in it,
I might look for them with my eyes,
and search for them with my clumsy fingers,
and be unable to detect them;
but let me take a magnet and sweep through it,
and how would it draw to itself the almost invisible particles
by the mere power of attraction.
The unthankful heart, like my finger in the sand, discovers no mercies;
but let the thankful heart sweep through the day,
and as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour,
some Heavenly blessings.
Henry Ward Beecher
***
Lord, you are my portion
and my cup of blessing;
you hold my future.
Psalm 16:5 CSB
