I want to desire and crave deeply the intangible, the inward blessings from God. I want to be satisfied with the blessings God has given me thus far. But I do want my own blessing.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10925274291668687900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981243138848561.post-7683873578767159052008-11-05T07:50:00.000-05:002008-11-05T07:50:00.000-05:00Well, since I've been and still am in a wrestling ...Well, since I've been and still am in a wrestling match with God, you wrote this for ME. ;) I'll read this again today.

It was seeing other people's reaction to what God had done in their life or spoke to them that made me want to "get my own!" I always understood that blessing follows obedience and I was not being obedient in several areas of my life. <BR/><BR/>I think that hearing Him is the ultimate blessing and one way I hear Him is through His Word. Does that make sense? <BR/><BR/>I love these comments.. :)ocean mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08420605508420197677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981243138848561.post-66945306592497000672008-11-04T15:17:00.000-05:002008-11-04T15:17:00.000-05:00I love this post.

Wanting to hear God on my own was what finally drove me to really study the Bible on my own and not just be satisfied with everyone else's blessing Praise God that He has enough love and enough blessings to bestow on each of us.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17935305702269407095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981243138848561.post-15626530708454894152008-11-04T15:15:00.000-05:002008-11-04T15:15:00.000-05:00You said, "I wonder how often we miss our blessing...You said, "I wonder how often we miss our blessing (read that as the divine favor) God has for us because we are too busy trying to mooch off of other believers"?<BR/><BR/>My answer? Way too often! WAAAAYYYYY too often!

You know, I'll hear about something wonderful that a friend had happen to her & if I think it was God... I might say you sure are blessed. Or if I know of someone who I can see God is really moving in their life I'll say they sure are blessed. When do I feel blessed? I feel blessed when I can really feel God in me & my life. <BR/>Gosh, the more I think about it.... that is hard. Blessing means so many things to us.

I want to be like you...wrapping myself around Him and refusing to let go until I not only get my blessing...but wrestle with him until I can understand what He is doing.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274828412033940675noreply@blogger.com
