Experiencing Blessings
Throughout life you and I will experience many blessings. Starting from when, as children, we experienced the love and protection of parents. As the years progress couples will experience the blessing of love leading to the exchanging of vows and a ring. This blessing will usually be followed by experiencing the birth of your first child. There are also the blessings of faithful friends who can be as close as family. All these blessings make your heart sing.
Although life carries with it good times and disappointing times, when we consider our blessings we will be grateful. This then begs the question what is the greatest blessing in life? The answer to this very important question is knowing that you are loved and forgiven because of God’s Divine Love. Because of this most important of blessing you and I can now attain eternal life with our God. The grace by which we receive our Heavenly Fathers blessing's are attained through the Atoning Sacrifice of Christ Jesus The Lord.
However, the greatest question for sinful people to understand is why did a Holy God send His Son to this sinful world to die? The answer is because of Unmerited Love. O what blessed assurance to know, and personally experience, the love of God. People with their best intentions will let one another down. On the other hand, Our Heavenly Father is forever faithful and true.
The ultimate blessing is to be experienced when in Heaven, where we will worship and praise our God before The Throne:
“After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God” (Revelation 19:1)
Today, let us praise our Heavenly Father for His many blessings.
