Blessings do not always come on silver trays,
wrapped in ribbons and festive bows.
Sometimes they come in dusty boxes
lugged by sweaty arms.
Occasionally,
a spider or two may tag along.
When you face life with an open heart,
you discover miracles happen
everyday.
You may even wonder what you’ve missed!
