Synopsis

This collection of original and warm hearted meditations draws the reader into an ever deeper understanding of God’s presence in our lives. Through personal stories and theological reflections, Blessed by God examines the nature of faith and blessedness.

There are meditations on the secrets of growing old, the silent witness of ancient churches, the inspiring faith of the Queen of England, and the power of praise and prayer. Theological reflections address common themes: Does God exist? What does the Cross do? What is an icon?

“In a world often marked by uncertainty, doubt, and spiritual searching, Blessed By God offers a deeply personal and reflective journey into recognizing God’s presence in everyday life. Through stories, meditations, and thoughtful insights, David Beresford explores how faith is not only found in moments of clarity, but also in struggle, aging, and transformation. Rather than presenting easy answers, the book gently invites readers to pause, reflect, and discover how God’s blessings are woven into both ordinary and extraordinary moments. It challenges us to see life through the lens of gratitude and to embrace the quiet ways in which God continues to work within us. This is a book that speaks to the heart—encouraging us to trust, to grow, and to recognize that we are, in every season of life, truly blessed by God.”

Margaret L. Thompson,
author of Faith Through the Storm and Grace in the Waiting


“I have come to see how often God’s presence is revealed not in grand events, but in the quiet unfolding of everyday life. In Blessed By God, David Beresford helps readers recognize those sacred moments and respond with faith and gratitude.”

Father Andrew Collins,
Pastor, St. Mark’s Anglican Church


“Blessed By God is a thoughtful and deeply moving reflection on faith, purpose, and the enduring love of God. It reminds us that even in times of uncertainty, we are never outside the reach of divine grace.”

Dr. Elizabeth Warren,
Professor of Theology, Boston Christian College

This is a book rich in thought and experience. It will inspire both the seeker and the person of deep faith.

“What does it mean to be blessed by God? Those seeking answers will, I hope, find some of them in this book. God’s blessings are freely bestowed on believer and non-believer alike. The art of the Christian life is to recognize them and live into them, giving thanks to God always for his providence and love.”
