What have God given to me ? isnt this a question many people tend to ask themselves?
sometimes people tend to think its unfair seeing the bad guys getting all the blessings. But how often did you look hard into the changes and surprises you recieved.
It is written,
“And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work”(2 Corinthians 9:8, NIV)
I realised, you might not get what you pray for, but it doesnt mean that God has forgotten about you. I took a look at my surroundings and found many things that contribute to my happiness. And then you will start to realise you have many things. Just not the one you might be looking for.
Over the last few days, the most predominant thought or rather feeling has been of plentitude. Life has a strange way of having sooo much of everything.
So much work; so much spare time; so much activity; so much rest; so much of longing; so much of dispassion; so much of everything; so much of nothing...
In fact as I realized, even the feeling of neglect and lack is in plenty. Most people really feel the lack or dearth in life. And that this feeling is so strong and so deep. It doesn’t come superficially-
it comes like a gushing wave and sweeps over us. That’s life!

Sometimes i feel that all that matters is what use we put it to. How we choose to see things.
We have this power so profound working all the time. Have we ever wonder that we haven’t mastered the art of making ourselves happy with what we have.

To us it may just be something small like a seed. But i realise that the seed contains in itself the tree, the fruit, the leaves, the branches, the buds and the flowers.
Today, you may be thinking, “I’m not blessed. I’m not confident. I’m not healthy. I’m not favored.” But when God says you’re blessed, don’t try to figure it out. Just agree with God and say, “I am blessed.” When God calls you prosperous, don’t go check your bank account. Don’t go look at the stock report. Just agree with God and say, “I am prosperous.” Things may look impossible. That’s all right. live a simple life Dont complicate things and things will turn out fine.
when you agree with God, you are positioning yourself for a miracle. We serve a God of abundance! He is more than enough! No matter what is on your “plate” of life, God wants to pour out His abundant grace upon you.
Thank God for the little things i over looked.
