I am blessed in many things. To write them all down would take an entire lifetime. Of course sometimes I don’t see something as a blessing, but His ways are not our ways. Jesus tells us in Mathew Chapter 5 about “blessed are the…” and not all are ones we’d consider as a blessing, are they? Obviously Jesus was telling us here that everything you face is a blessing, even being persecuted or being lied about. If you considered every situation that went on in your life a blessing, even if you didn’t know why or how, how much happier do you think you would be?
Just think when your someone walks on the clean floor you just mopped with their muddy boots what if you considered it a blessing? A blessing in teaching you how to love above all, forgive, and hold your tongue and temper? How many things do you think you would avoided and how much would you grow spiritually?
Sometimes you have a right to feel sorry for yourself, but God knows your hurt and the rejection you feel, even from those who claim to follow His Father. He hears your silent tears. He has been at the very place, but it all served for a purpose. Do you then not think that the trials in your life don’t serve a purpose as well? They do. Consider them as such. You will learn so much with this mindset. I know I have.
You are blessed as a Child of the King. Don’t let satan steal the blessings and treasures He has for you by viewing your trials as a curse. Say as Jesus did “How blessed you are when people insult you and persecute you and tell all kinds of vicious lies about you because you follow me!” Amen, I am blessed!
