Psalm 107:1-3---O give
thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Let the
redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy; And
gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the
north, and from the south.
We can count
our blessings in a grand and glorious mental exercise.
However,
counting our blessings in our hearts and minds is often not enough.
We become a
blessing to God as we actually see His blessings poured out in our life.
Just
thinking about how God blesses us with the freedom to worship is not enough.
We become a
blessing to God when we actually do worship.
Just
thinking about praying and how we can come close to God in prayer is not
enough.
We become a
blessing to God when we actually do pray and come close to Him in prayer.
Blessings
are poured out in our life not just to be counted.
God pours
blessings out in our life so we can see His blessings, absorb them, and take
them in.
When we see
His blessings, when we absorb His blessings, and when we take His blessings in,
we can fully become His work and witness.
Living in
His blessings give us His power to be humble, contrite, and forgiving.
