From The Minister's Heart/Desk

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS ONE BY ONE AND SEE WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE:

He woke us up early this morning. Isn't that a blessing.
He clothed us in our right mind. Isn't that a blessing.
He put food on our table, and clothes on our body. Isn't that a blessing.
He gave us our health and strength. Isn't that a blessing.
He gave us a family. Isn't that a blessing.
He gave us a job. Isn't that a blessing.

Continue to count your blessings...   We have so, so much to be thankful for. This alone is a blessing.

Just think, We are blessed to be a blessing to others, and many of us do not think this way.
Everything that Jesus owned was given to us when he died on the cross for our sins; he became sin when he knew no sin. He took on the cross and died so that we might live and glorify him. This was, and is, the biggest blessing we will ever receive.

Over 2000 years ago we inherited everything that belonged to him. It is our's just for the asking. O what a blessing.


A great author said, I paraphrase, In order to live our essential needs must be met:
Physiological -basic needs- hunger, thirst, oxygen, and sleep.
Safety needs, belongingness and love needs...
These needs must be meet before spiritual motivation can exist.

When God, himself, came down from heaven as Jesus he ministered to a sinful world; then he died on the cross to fulfilled all the needs we will ever have. Within the crucifixion there were many blessing bestowed upon us.


Psalm 103: 1,2

Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

*** When praises goes up blessings come down; don't stop praising him, inorder, to receive your blessings.
Lets praise him with our inner being; and we cannot afford to forget how he has continued to bless us:

Spiritually
Financially                                   WE/I HAVE SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR. Socially                                        LETS CONTINUE TO BE THANKFUL.
physically ...                                  

LETS THANK HIM RIGHT NOW FOR BEING SO GOOD.

Lord help us to continue to count our blessings - until we meet again soon.
