The Blessings or the Blesser…

I am quite sure that you met a situation like this and obviously one would choose the Blesser for all I know…yet why so many people today are still yearning and living for so many things, why are they still forgetting where it really came from and even somehow, many would take those things dishonestly to their lives. Could that genuinely answer my title if its converted to a question? Hmmm….

One thing that bothers me is that we don’t really know who the Blesser is…..personally! When life rolls along the cliff of needs and wants, then requirements of love ones could fall in. Or perhaps.., when we are annoyed by somebody, could we still strongly produce a significant response to this.., I mean could we say or put the Blesser again on top of it all when our needs for the dying parents or brothers are in the line? When we need a medicine fast or money to pay for the cure, operation or important requirements. It’s one thing to answer it honestly when you are in a real predicament. Or when your sight is fixed on helping and saving the one so attached and important. You might go after the quick solution in your power and knowledge that satisfy to augment such. Perhaps….

The Blesser could get a shout out but the blessings are what we seek more! And many times, we crave for enjoyment or quick response of the creations in store rather than the Creator. Do we really need to give Him limited and conditional service instead of full submission to His glory whatever the case maybe?…

I’m no psychologist, but this I understand…, our eyes are fixated on the blessings generally. Even at times or should I say–most of the time, we want to get, meet or acquire response to the emerging demands rather than raising hands to the one who really produced that response. We mostly fail to see the importance of talking heartfully with Him as our wants are flooding and continuously coming. This is the thing that occupies most of the thoughts we’re possessing.

Hey! Jesus knows what we really need before we even ask for it, remember? Better to sing for His blessedness, better to praise the Blesser before directly asking for His blessings. After all the reason we all live is to worship, praise and adore the Lord above all! Let God reveal his endless magnitude by stripping those blocks that hinder His blessings to be enjoyed by us. Focus on that! Always seek the Blesser and blessings will flow! He is Almighty and His power never runs out.

So.., are we seeking the blessings or the Blesser Himself? Our response will persuade and reflect how we are truly and ultimately living.

I say…, Worship the Blesser to enjoy the blessings and more… Shalom!

VERSE-MEAL:
But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit. Jer. 17:7-8
