Blessings

The Lord bless you and protect you. ~ Numbers 6:24 (CEB)

You were called to do this so that you might inherit a blessing. ~ 1 Peter 3:9b (CEB)

KEY IDEA:
The Lord is looking for ways to bless his people because that is the kind of God he is.

PRAYER:
Thank you so much, Lord, for all the blessings that you have extended to me. I am troubled by the fact that I'm quicker to make a list of all the things I think you should bless me with than I am to list all the blessings you have already given to me. Help me to count the blessings -- and not just every once in awhile but day by day -- moment by moment. I'm going to revel in your generosity -- starting with the blessing of a living hope that is ours through the resurrection of Christ Jesus from the dead. Amen.
