Can you name all your blessings you received the last 5 years?




Deuteronomy 28: 2 (AMP)

“All these blessings will come upon you and overtake you if you pay attention to the voice of the LORD your God.”

I was asked if I can name all the blessings I received the last couple of years, say for the last 5 years. I thought about it and I actually can name my blessings. I am blessed with work for the past couple of years which seemed impossible.  I thank God for this opportunity and I believe God changes even the Kings heart. Yes, I can also tell about the wonderful experience I have had when it comes to my cake business. I am not very good at calculating my costs but in time I will get there. But praise God even my cakes are doing well.

In my personal life, I am also very blessed, I think of Mothers Day when all my children come and visit me and bring me beautiful gifts. I wasn’t even expecting to see them, praise God for this. I must tell you even during the year when I feel at my lowest my children phone me out of the blue. I truly am blessed.

In my relationship with my husband and stepchildren, I am blessed there as well. I have received unexpected gifts from my husband and stepchildren. I didn’t expect anything from my husband as I know he has bought me a ring and we are waiting for it to be delivered, and he bought me the most beautiful bunch of flower. My heart sang for joy.

Work wise, God has honestly helped me here. I am so grateful for this opportunity, it opens a door for me to do things I could have done otherwise. I praise the Lord for these opportunities.
I read that an Author John Mason said “We typically see things not as they are, but as we are. By how we position ourselves, we’ll see the evidence of God everywhere or nowhere. Too often our minds are locked on one track. We’re looking everywhere, and the answer is under our nose. When a person is positioned correctly, he’s ready to receive all God has for him.”

I believe that I am obedient to God check this link to Deuteronomy 28 verse 2 – 13 in the King James Version. 

Can you identify all the blessings in your life for the past 5 years. Sit down and make a note, write them down and give praise offers to the Lord our God.

Prayer

Abba Father, humbly I come into Your presence, bring You praise and I worship at Your feel, I believe Lord that You are a good, good Father, You care deeply about each and everyone of us. I dedicate all my family and friends into Your hands today. I pray for supernatural blessings for our obedience. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ my Lord and my Saviour. Amen

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

The View from the Sycamore Tree

"Ill-gotten treasures have no lasting value, but righteousness delivers from death. The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." Proverbs 10:2–10 Reflection The Turning Point: I used to think that by this stage of my life. The path was already set in stone. I looked at the mirror and saw the silver hair and the lines of age. I felt as though I was simply watching the clock run out on my dreams. I’ve spent years in the "midlife crisis." Wrestling with the ghosts of regrets, careers that didn't flourish, relationships that felt the strain of time. The nagging fear of being "less than" in a world that prises youth and worldly success. But then I saw Zacchaeus. He was a man who had spent his life traveling in the wrong direction. Chasing "ill-gotten treasures" that left his soul hungry. When he climbed that tree, he wasn't just trying t...
