FROM BLAMING TO BLESSINGS
Brother James, OIC
Mat 5:1-2 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
Mat 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Mat 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Mat 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Mat 5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Mat 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Mat 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Mat 5:10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 5:11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Mat 5:12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you
I always equated financial wealth to blessings but the more I received the less happier I became. But now because God has called me and placed within me His Word of Truth I've understood what true blessings are. The word broke me,healed me then reshaped me into the image of Gods Son. The verses above describe the Nature of Jesus and now I'm living in the blessing of the Nature of Christ in me.
In my Old Nature I always wanted to blame others for things I caused to go wrong in my life. But now with eyes opened to discern what truly is good and what is evil Ive realized there is a lot to be thankful for to live in the world but not be a part of its false solutions.
