An Unknown Blessing
Hello my Blessed Bloggers,
Hope your weekend was a blessed one. I am loving this beautiful Texas weather in the Fall and speaking of Fall, I would like to introduce you to our new Seasonal Section on the store. Right now we are highlighting items for Fall and gearing up to release our Christmas Items on November 1st. You will find decorative Leaf Bowls, Thomas Kinkade Throws and Wallhangings, some great Fall Fashions, and more.
Don't forget that we are still offering the 20% off discount on the entire store, just enter the coupon code " ablessedthingcoupon ".
Sometimes in life we feel that we are not very blessed. We have those days when we feel a little less than what God says we really are. We are overwhelmed by the things that life throws our way. You may have been overlooked at work while a co-worker got promoted, you may be going through a battle with sickness or even have an addiction, you may not be on speaking terms with a loved one or hurt by someone whom you trusted and love. Regardless of what you are going through, remember that you are "GOING THROUGH". God is still there, even in the midst of your trouble. I am taken back to a story in the Bible of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. They were thrown into the fire for not bowing down to the idol, they chose to stay true to the one living God and worship Him alone. When they were in the fire, so was the Lord. Remember, no matter what fire you are going through, God is still with you and because of Him you can be blessed.

A brand new A Blessed Thing.com has finally arrived! I have been working hard for the past several weeks getting the new website up and going. Everything has changed! We have added many more products, changed our design, added a registry for those special occasions, a new blog and much more. We are offering 20% OFF EVERYTHING until the end of the month, just use the coupon code, " ablessedthingcoupon ". We will begin our weekly blog again with updates on products and a special message of encouragement.
I have learned something new about being blessed in the past couple of months and that is that others can be blessed because of you. We all tend to be a little selfish about praying for God's blessings to be on us, we ask Him to bless our day, bless our family, bless our food, bless our finances, and He will do that but if you just add a little extra to your prayer by saying, " God I ask that as you bless me, you would bless others because of me." For example, as you pray for your performance at work to be outstanding, you would receive a raise and favor, also ask that God would bless your employer as well. God will bless you but He will also bless your place of employment because of you. My husband is a handyman on the side and we go often to do various jobs but before we go we pray that God would bless the work of our hands and that our customers would be blessed as well. We were about to do a major ceramic tile job and the customers were in a hurry and about to go out of town for over a week. The tile they had ordered had just arrived the evening before they were to leave and they did not even take time to look at it. My husband said he thought it might be a good idea to go over there and lay out a few pieces just to see how they wanted it. When he got there and began to lay out the tile, it was not the tile they ordered. You see the original plan was that we would come over after they left and lay the tile by the time they got back. They would have arrived back home with the wrong tile laid unknown to us. You see God worked it all out for them because of us and our prayers, they were blessed and we were blessed as well.
God is so good and he loves His children so much that, surely goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives. AMEN!!
I am asking that as you all visit the new website, you would go to the "Guestbook" section and leave a message for me as to what you think of the new site.
Blessings to you this week,
Stephanie
