Love God, Love People: Blessed in any season →

livetheword:

so often we associate being blessed with the fact that we have everything that we want, or reaching something we have always dreamed, but the Bible teach us that it’s not what always happens, sometimes God is going to give you a ”no” as a way to bless your life, even if it cause you pain on that moment.

If you take a look in the Bible text  you will see that Jesus Himself asked God for something that He didn’t receive, he asked God to take away from him the cup of suffering, the pain of the Cross, more than the pain of the nails on his flesh but the worse pain he could feel, our sins. God said ”no” and Jesus went to the cross and that was the place where he saved you and I, where humanity found Hope and can be now reconciled with God, our Father.

so, the conclusion that I came is that sometimes the place that we are now in suffering can be where we will find the greatest victory of our lives, if we just fight till the end, and don’t quit, so God will come, and bring us help and confort and even if we don’t have everything we want we will feel blessed, as the Bible describes, like a tree planted by streams of water,  which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither, whatever they do prospers.
