Ps 1:3

"He is like a tree planted by streams of water,which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers."

Accept the blessing and ENJOY it!

Psalm 128:1,2 (MSG) "All you who fear God, how blessed you are! how happily you walk on his smooth straight road! You worked hard and deserve all you've got coming. ENJOY the blessing! Revel in the goodness!"
I LOVE this scripture (particularly The Message translation) because it reminds me that I need to just sit back and enjoy the blessings God has bestowed onto to me. I was guilty of questioning why God blesses me and questioning the blessings only made moments that were meant to be sweet and beautiful sour. God is merciful and full of grace. We need to accept how great He is and believe that IF we fear the Lord we ARE blessed. Kind of like how Hebrews 11:6 reminds us that if we come to Him we must believe that He exists and that he is a rewarder of those that seek Him. Again, it all boils down to faith. The Word says that when we seek Him and when we fear Him we are blessed/rewarded... and that's that! Believe and ENJOY the blessings that WILL come your way ;) AMEN!!
