Seeking God's Blessings

"When we seek God's blessing as the ultimate value in life, we are throwing ourselves entirely into the river of His will and power and purposes for us. All our other needs become secondary to what we really want - which is to become wholly immersed in what God is trying to do in us, through us, and around us for His glory."

-Bruce Wilkinson

The Prayer of Jabez

Bless us, indeed, O LORD our God! Help us to share our blessings and in turn be a blessing to others - sharing however much or little that we have. Help us not to be greedy or stingy, but to be generous, watching for opportunities to help others. Help us to go beyond our own problems to reach out to others. May we be "rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share." (1 Timothy 6:18)

Carry us away in the river of Your will, power, and purpose for us. Drown us, Lord, in Your blessings, so that our lives are immersed in seeking You! May we bring you glory!

In His Love, Cathy
