Blessing #2

Before I share another blessing I want to make an important note. These blessings are "little" things and are in no particular order. If I was to name ALL my blessings, Jesus Christ my Lord and Saviour would be at the top, followed by God's precious Word, my AWESOME husband and WONDERFUL sons.

At this time in my life there are moments when it is hard to remember the many, many blessings that I have. These are what I am sharing.

Today's blessing that Lord wanted me to take special note of is my coffee mug. I must say I really like this mug. It is Redware pottery and made by Henderson's pottery. I purchased it at Leonard's Mills during Living History Days on the first weekend in October. It is a "second" with a big crack in the handle which, in my humble opinion, adds much character to the mug and in no way hinders it's worth or usefulness. I love the rough, almost bumpy texture of the mug. Another wonderful plus is that since it is pottery it holds the heat in longer and keeps my coffee warm longer. The mug itself stays warm for quite some time after the coffee is gone and on chilly evenings, sometimes I will sit with the empty mug in my hands for warmth.

Even though it is such a small blessing, I do thank the Lord for my wonderful coffee mug.
