LIFE IS A BLESSING
God sets before us
CONSTANT CHOICES in life
ONE such choice is HOW
We are going to live
Our life
Are we going to live
Our lives=as a BLESSING
For others=or as a curse
I TRY to live
As a blessing for OTHERS
“I set before you=life and death=
The BLESSING and the curse
Choose life then=
That you-
And your descendants may live
By loving the Lord=
Your God........” Deuteronomy 30:19-20
It seems like-
Such an easy choice=
I'll take the BLESSING
Unfortunately=many of us
Don't TREAT life as a blessing
Don't live life as a BLESSING
Live with responsibility=
LIVE WITH GRATITUDE
MANY of us=choose
A selfish kind of life
NO SHARING=of any kind
Saying=”mine-mine-mine”
But I know=LIFE is a BLESING=
I have been taught by God=HOW PRECIOUS
And how fragile life is=I
Have been given=EXTRA CHANCES
At life
LIFE IS INDEED A BLESSING!
“BLESSED is the nation
Whose God is the Lord=
The people he chose
For his inheritance” Psalm 33:12
“Where there is no revelation
People cast off restraint
But BLESSED is the one
Who heeds wisdom's instruction” Proverbs 29:18
“For he has been mindful
Of the humble state
Of his servant
From now on=all generations
Will call me BLESSED” Luke 1:48
We need to REMEMBER=
Life is a BLESSING!
We need to remember
To live that way=
And NOT to live
Like life is a curse
We need to live
WITH GRATITUDE
For the life=GOD has given us
LIFE IS A BLESSING!
Live with gratitude=
Wait patiently on God
And Jesus=and SHARE
What we have=with others
“I will make them=
And the places=surrounding my hill
A BLESSING
I will send down showers
In season=There will be showers
OF BLESSING” Ezekiel 34:26
So we remember today
THE BLESSINGS OF LIFE=
Which calls us to live
With GRATEFUL HEARTS=
And to SHARE GOD'S LOVE
With others
We choose life=for LIFE
IS A BLESSING!
In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our FOREVER GIVING God the FATHER!
