Count Your Blessings
Above is the picture of a Dana domestic airline plane crash scene at Iju-Ishaga area of Lagos State, Nigeria. The sad incident happened a few hours ago. All the passengers and crew perished in the crash. In addition, the plane crashed into some houses on the ground and many people died on the spot, including a couple that got married yesterday.
It was just last week that my first daughter traveled by that same plane to and from Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria. It was an expensive flight but we were consoled by the fact that Dana airline was one of the best in the country. And now this!
So, what can we as a family do in light of this incident except to give thanks, praises and glories to the Almighty God for always abiding with us with His faithfulness. And this is all the more reasons why we consider it very important to count our blessings all the time.
Count your blessings,
name them one by one.
Count your blessings
see what God has done.
Count your blessings,
name them one by one
and it will surprise you,
what the Lord has done.
