“Be A Blessing To Someone Else”

James 1:17

Blessing is defined as dedication; grace; good wishes; favor. 

We are blessed to be a blessing. Being a blessing to others is a selfless act. It's focusing on that person and how we can bless them. It's something we need to be intentional about. If I'm not thinking about it, I could go days without blessing someone because I'm too focused on my own situations. With courage and resolution, Esther decided to intercede for her people. Esther said, “if I perish, I perish. I cannot lose my life, in a better cause. Better to do my deed and die with them.” God blessed Abraham so that he in return become a blessing to all people on the earth. By becoming a living example of obedience to God’s will His divine laws, statutes, should be manifested in our ways of thinking, speaking, and acting. As true Christ disciples, we should not react like unbeliever Gentiles or pagan skeptics. We are commanded even to love our enemy and not revile them. How far are we willing to go, to be a blessing to someone else? 

I come by tonight to let you know do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this we were called so that we may inherit a blessing. Be a blessing to someone else. Be blessed and I love you!!! JE
