Ever notice that our greatest blessings and our hardest trials often seem to come wrapped up in the same package?

If you have a job, or children, or a spouse, or a body, you probably understand the idea of a "mixed blessing." Popular speaker and author Emily Watts observes, "It’s as if every mortal experience is a coin with two sides. If you want to be happy, learn to see the blessing side of the coin." She goes on to give many examples, framed by her own hilarious, real-life stories, illustrating how to shed our pride, rejoice in the blessings we’ve been given, and trust that the Lord knows what he is doing even when we can’t see what He has in mind for us.
