Those who praise God for blessings, Do not Know God. Those who wait for God’s Blessings or Deliverance from circumstances before Praising Him, have Missed The Greatest Blessing God Predestined For us -Jesus. This is Imperative to Know not just for the non-Christian, but perhaps even more so for the Christian.
What do you long for? What do you seek? What are you living for? What are you dying for? Why wait to Thank God? Why wait to Praise Him? Why wait to Joyfully Rejoice In His Name? How do you say you Have Jesus, then say you lack anything? How do you say your heart lacks for anything, when God’s Love -Which only Eternity can Hold- Is In Your Heart? If Infinite Love Fills your Heart, then what emptiness?
This is not to say that we ought not Lift our troubles up to God, or not ask God for Provision for our needs and desires. God Loves us, and Loves to Be Provider in our life. Yet, what is more important? The things of this world, or God Himself? If the Salvation we Have in Jesus takes second place to anything, then we have yet to Fully Realize or Experience God’s Love for us. For the Christian, there is no Greater Blessing than God’s Love for us Completed In Jesus. To miss this, is to miss the Greatest Blessing.
Prayer:
God, whatever may be missing in my life, let it not be Your Love. God, whenever I feel lack for something, Let me Find Abundance in Your Love. God, Let me never appreciate what is given, more than The Giver.
