The Bible is full of beautiful, uplifting blessings that remind us how God who created our magnificent world also loves and cares about each one of us. This selection of familiar and less well-known verses from the Old and New Testaments reminds us that God wants to bless us abundantly with his peace, provision and protection, with hope and happiness and much, much more. Each encouraging blessing is illustrated with a stunning photo by Brian Cartwright. Numbers 6:24–26 - ‘May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favour and give you his peace.’ (NLT)
