Share His Blessings


Sometimes it is hard for us to depend ourselves on something that we cannot see [God]. We usually depend ourselves on our parents, friends, and money [of course]. In fact, none of those will last forever. We cannot live forever with our parents and friends. Sometimes we don't have enough money to buy what we need. People are going crazy to get lots of money. They will do everything to get rich and they think that their life will be so much better. The saddest part is, people are usually think about themselves instead of helping other people around them. They don't care about others. They don't care if other people are hungry, thirsty, need a place to sleep, need someone to encourage them, or need someone to listen to them. What if those people were actually the angels that God sent from heaven, to see whether you will pass the test or not.

I was listening to a song by Brad Paisley called What If She is an Angel, for me this song is really touchy, so I would like to share the lyrics:


Here's a man standing on the corner
With a sign sayin "will work for food"
You know the man
You see him every morning
The one you never give your money to

You can sit there with your window rolled up

Wondering when the lights going to turn green

Never knowing what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might mean
What if he's an angel sent here from heaven

And he's making certain that you're doing your best
to take the time to help one another. Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
trying to forget what you saw in his face Knowing deep down it could have been his saving grace.
What if he's an angel


A little girl on daddy's lap Hiding her disease with a baseball cap.
You can turn the channel
. Most people do.
But what if you were sitting in her daddy's shoes
. Maybe she's an angel.
Sent here from Heaven
. And she's making certain you're doing your best to take the time to help one another. Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day trying to forget what you saw in her face Knowing deep down it could have been her saving grace
What if she's an angel


From my experienced, the reason why it is hard for me to give what I have to other people is because I am afraid that I won't have enough for myself. It's my selfishness that always stopped me from doing what God wants me to do.

In fact, in
Matthew 6:25-27 God taught us that we don't have to worry about anything.

God says:
So I tell you, don't worry about the food or drink you need to live, or about the clothes you need for your body. Life is more than food and the body is more important than clothes. Look at the birds in the air. They don't plant or harvest or store food in the barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. And you know that you worth much more than the birds. You cannot add any time to your life by worrying about it.

From this verse I learned that I don't need to worry to share what I have with others, because God is taking care of me everyday. He is adding everything that I need, I don't have to worry that I won't have enough for myself. God is providing everything. When we are helping other people, God will doubled His blessings for us.


The MOST Important point is: You should depend on God and share His blessings!


The Lord will blessed you physically, emotionally, and financially if you depend yourself on Him. Give your life to Him and don't worry about anything. God is a provider and He is never late. He will give everything you need at the right time.


Isaiah 26:3-4:
You Lord, give true peace to those who depend on you, because they trust you. So trust the Lord always, because He is our Rock FOREVER!

Psalm 116:5-9

The Lord is Kind and does what is right: Our God is Merciful. The Lord watches over the foolish; When I was helpless He saved me. I said to myself; "Relax, because the Lord takes care of you." Lord, you saved me from death. You stopped my eyes from crying; you kept me from being defeated So I walk with the Lord in the land of the living.

Try to walk with Christ and trust Him.
Share the blessings that He gave you, don't keep them for yourself. If you always do your best to give other people what they need, then God will do the same thing to you. He sees all the good things that you did to other people; therefore, He will make sure that you will get everything that you need. DON'T BE AFRAID TO SHARE!

Understand His Teachings


I've been reading a devotion book that my friend (Lezlie) gave me for Christmas. In one of the devotions it talks about how some people are reading the bible and go to church but they never understand the messages from God. That's why they usually refused to obey God's commandments. They are too stubborn to listen to what God has to say. They never know that God has so many blessings for them if they are willing to take the chances and obeying His words.

God has promised us in Matthew 6:33:

"But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and everything will be added to you"

If we understand God's words, then we will know what He wants us to do. We are seeking His face and His Kingdom by reading our bible, praying, worshipping Him, be a witness, and helping others. If we can make a commitment to God and seek Him with our heart, then He will give everything we need, and sometimes we don't even have to ask for it because He will provide every single thing that we need.

I read a really cool verse while I was reading my devotion book

How I love your teachings!
I think about them all day long.
I have avoided every evil way, so I could obey your word.
Your promises are sweet to me, sweeter than honey in my mouth!
Your orders give me understanding.
So I hate lying ways.

Your Word is like a lamp for my feet and a light for my path
I will do what I have promised and obey your fair laws.

Psalm 119:97, 101, 103-106

God will NEVER dissapoint you, your life will be so much brighter if you walk with Jesus and obeying His teachings. Don't be stubborn. Our God is a sweet God. He will appreciate it, if you give your time to obey His teachings and understand His messages for you. Try to understand His teachings NOW! and be a blessing to others. Make God proud of you in whatever you're doing.
