Are You Living Blessed...part 2

This book was so good that I thought I would do a series on the book. But trust me when I say - I am only giving just a tidbit of the wonderful, uplifting information in this awesome book. There are great stories in every chapter that really spoke to my heart. If you ever get the chance to read this book - I would highly recommend it. But for now - you will get the benefit of picking up some of wonderful tips to live by in your life in order to live blessed.
 
 
 
In this next chapter, I learned that the blessing is spoken of in the scripture more than 200 times and how God "blesses us so we can bless one another- with our words and with His words."

"It is God's intention- His joy- to lift, to encourage, to inspire. It's His nature to give and His glory to bless! And to us He gives the gift of being extensions of His hands."

24The LORD bless you, and keep you;
25The LORD make His face shine on you,
         And be gracious to you; 26The LORD lift up His countenance on you,
         And give you peace.’
Numbers 6:24-26

This chapter ended with some great questions that I think we should ask ourselves each day:
  • "Who do You want me to bless for You today?"
  • "Who do You want to love through me today?
  • "Who do You want me to put an arm around on your behalf today?"
Like I said at the beginning - what I am sharing is just a tiny bit of the gems I have found in this book, the things that really spoke to my heart. I will be keeping my eyes opened for more copies of this great book to give away.
