Many times we don’t have to talk. If we just be quiet and listen to other people talk they will give us all the information we’re looking for. Many times they will give us more information than what we need. We pray, and as soon as we get done we just leave God. We don’t stay and listen for his response. When we learn to stay and listen, it will save us so much time and energy trying to figure out how to solve our issues and problems. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Many times we see loved ones in need and we want to run to their rescue. Did God tell us to do that? Sometimes we can get in God’s way. He’s trying to teach the person a lesson, but here we come sticking our nose where it doesn’t belong. Stop letting people depend on you and let them depend on God. They need to know him for themselves. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Nowadays people think they can treat you any way they please. They believe if they make more money than you or live a better life than you, then you’re less than; not realizing you’re one of God’s children too. What they don’t know is that they will reap what they sow. When we treat people less than or we oppress other people, it’s just a matter of time before God flips the script. It’s just a matter of time before the janitor you’ve looked down on, owns the company. It’s just a matter of time before the boys in the hood selling drugs, use their knowledge and open a legitimate company and restore the neighborhood. It’s just a matter of time before the young lady that’s selling her body come into contact with a man that loves her, and that will look beyond her faults and see her needs. So before we start treating people less than, know it’s just a matter of time.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Do people get on your nerves and you wish they would stop talking to you? They don’t get the hint that you are fed up, and they go on and on. It’s funny how we feel this way with people but not with the devil. We tend to listen to every lie he says. We can tell the devil to stop talking to us by using the word of God. When we use the word we are resisting the devil. Resist the devil and he will flee.

I love to cook and bake. I cook everyday and I often call people to come taste or get a plate. Many times if someone say they have a taste for something I will cook it for them. Well one lady I know asked  me why are you always doing something for people? Why are you always coming out of your pocket to cook for people? I had to let her know that’s what I do. God has blessed me to be a blessing to someone else. Besides, she doesn’t complain when she gets a plate. My daughter happened to be present during our conversation and I had to explain to my daughter, this lady is not going to change my mind about blessing people. The Lord has given me a gift of feeding people and I’m going to use it to the best of my ability. Never let anyone talk you out of blessing someone else. Recognize that person doesn’t know the love of God, because God is a giver. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

How many of us often say; if I only had more money everything would be alright? If I only had a better paying job, I could pay my bills? The truth is even with more money and a better paying job, many of us would still be in the same situation. I say this because we have not been good stewards over the money God has given us. We allow our spending habits to be out of control with the little we do have, so imagine if we had much. There is nothing more with wanting more money or a better paying job. It’s when we are blessed with these things we need to be better stewards of our resources. I really don’t understand God’s math but I like it. All he asks me for is 10%. When I give not pay my 10%, he opens up a window for me and pours me and my kids out a blessing that we don’t have room enough to receive. So it’s not about the more, it’s about doing with what you already have. If you be faithful over a few things, he’ll make you ruler over many.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Have you ever taken an inventory of your stuff and your life? After looking at everything; what you have, what you don’t have, did you come to the conclusion “I still got enough”? No matter what you have or don’t have, if you have Jesus you have more than enough. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Family members can test your patience like no one else. They know what buttons to push and when to push them. It’s in those times we have no problems washing our hands of them and forgetting they even exist. However, we can’t give up on them. God never gave up on us and we did far worse to his Son than any family member could ever do to us. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

When was the last time you told God I’m nothing without you? When was the last time you realized that it’s only in God that you live, move, and have your being? One thing we all need to know is, everything we have is because of God. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. So if you think you’re this self-made man or woman, think again. If God decided to take everything you have and just leave you with your breath that’s still enough. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Hold on to God’s unchanging hand. He’s turning your situation around. You may not see it yet, but keep watching. God is not a man that he shall lie. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
