God blesses us, but do we see them?

4 Blessings God Gives Us Each Day

God gives us little blessings every day of our lives. Most we can easily see while others may take a minute to see. If you just look around though, you will see the many amazing things that God does for us. He is our shepherd in the storms of life. He leads us to great things because He loves us. Here are some blessings that I believe God gives us every day.

1. Well, for one thing, we wake-up each and every morning.

This may sound cheesy, but it is very true. God allows us to wake-up every day so that we can conquer the great big world that He has made. We all have a purpose, but we need to get up and go fulfill that calling.

2. God gives us the weather.

This one can be a little tricky. We love the beautiful, sun-filled days, but we need the rainy days to make those beautiful days bright with vegetation and plants. Plus, we have the days of bad weather. We all do not like those days, but we need to praise God in every storm.

3. We get to see the beautiful trees and plants every day.

If you ever just stop and look around, you will realize that we do live in a beautiful world. All plants are beautiful and make the world bright. We just have to take the time to look at what God created.

4. God blesses us with His love.

We all have someone who loves us. Many have friends and family members who love us. However, when you feel like no is there, God is. He will listen to us every day, and He has His arms wide open so that we can run to Him anytime that we need to. Isaiah 41:10 says, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” God will be there when you feel alone, scared, sad, or happy. You just have to be willing to run to Him.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
