Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow [seed] nor reap [the harvest] nor gather [the crops] into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they?
Unless we intentionally focus on the blessings of God during our quiet time with Him, it can be easy to take those blessings for granted. I encourage you to fix your focus and begin seriously considering all the ways God is helping, protecting, and providing for you.
Are you breathing today? If so, you are a recipient of God’s goodness. Do you have a home, a job, family, and friends? If the answer is yes, then you are experiencing the blessings of God. Do you have food to eat, clean water to drink, and clothes to wear? If so, you are blessed!
Perhaps you don’t have all of these things, but you do have some of them, and you can rejoice in what you do have. I can assure you that no matter how difficult your circumstances are right now, there are many things in your life that are better than you may have realized.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, please help me intentionally focus on Your many blessings and be grateful for Your constant provision and protection. You have been so good to me. Thank You.
