That's a good perspective to have: always remembering the blessings we receive so bountifully from God.
I like the pictures you add to the quotes; very feminine & an illustration of "ideal" surroundings. How lovely will it be for the ones who are a part of the glorious Kingdom of God - the environment will be grander and more beautiful than these paintings!
