Shower Blessings and Happiness
This week we focus on “Blessings”. Today’s MotD encourages us to ask our Higher Power to shower people that we may be holding a resentment towards…with blessings and happiness. It’s a tall order. What we have to remember here is that these resentments that we have, chances are the other people are not even aware of how we feel. So who is being hurt by these resentments? Hmmm?
We’re encouraged to pray for these blessings whenever we catch ourselves in our resentment. Over time we will see the situation change…especially within ourselves.
As luck would have it, today I’m heading to Portland, a 90+ minute drive, mostly on highways. I tend to hold a lot of resentment towards what I consider to be inconsiderate drivers. What usually happens is I lose my peace over it and by the time I arrive, I’m a mess. Today, however, with each interaction (and I truly hope there aren’t any), I will ask my HP to shower these drivers with blessings and happiness. Won’t this be interesting.
How about you? Are you holding onto any resentments towards others? Are you open to praying for them to receive blessings and happiness? Just try it for one day and see how it goes.
BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:


Peace & Blessings,

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day
Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.
Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.
Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.
