Blessings Abound: Awaken to the Gifts at Hand by Katherine Scherer and Eileen Bodoh (Book Review #2144)

In Blessings Abound, Katherine Scherer and Eileen Bodoh present a gentle, heartfelt invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the everyday miracles that too often go unnoticed. This inspirational and spiritual guide is not merely a book—it is a companion in cultivating gratitude, awareness, and inner peace.

Structured around three categories—Blessings Received, Blessings Taken for Granted, and Blessings Found in Disguise—the book blends poetic prose, timeless wisdom, and rich cultural references into a tapestry of insight. Drawing from Native American teachings, Biblical verses, and the words of sages like Rumi, Thoreau, and Emerson, the authors illuminate the profound beauty hidden in life’s simplest moments.

Scherer and Bodoh write with warmth and clarity, offering gentle reminders that blessings exist not only in moments of joy but also in adversity, solitude, and challenge. Their reflections on love, free will, happiness, nature, music, beauty, and the human heart evoke a sense of reverence for life in all its forms. The section on “Blessings of Old,” with its tribute to indigenous wisdom and ancestral prayers, adds a grounding spiritual depth that transcends religious affiliation.

What makes Blessings Abound particularly impactful is its tone of universal compassion. The authors neither preach nor prescribe. Instead, they share, invite, and inspire. Their voices are those of wise companions—encouraging us to shift from complaint to appreciation, from fear to hope, and from scarcity to abundance.

Whether read cover to cover or savored one page at a time, this 56-page book is ideal for personal reflection, group discussion, or spiritual renewal. The inclusion of quotations, affirmations, and evocative imagery makes it a perfect bedside or coffee table book—a daily source of uplift and grounding.

Blessings Abound is more than a celebration of gratitude; it is a reminder that blessings are not only to be counted but embodied. In a world often overwhelmed by noise and stress, this book is a quiet sanctuary of light and love.
