Fantastic Friday #333- Blessings

Blessings

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. Ephesians 1:3-6

Blessings; they come into our lives every single day, from the moment you wake up to the moment you lie down you are blessed.  Now, why do we just sit around to think and wonder where the blessings are in our lives.  Are we so caught up in what we can get and what we can do, that we forget about the simple blessings we have in our lives?  The enemy works on us by letting us think that we need God to do something big in our life to really make a difference, when in reality we don't need that.  We are already blessed and can rejoice in the blessings we receive from our Lord and Savior.  Maybe it is the way we look at blessings being small ones, medium ones, large ones, and extra-large ones.  Isn't every blessing from God an extra-large blessing?  I think it is in our perception and maybe we need to view these blessings as something that God predestined for us.  The moment we put God in a Box with blessings, is the moment God stops being God.  Praise God for who He is and know that He provides the blessings which are all always extra large.

Have a great weekend.
