Blessings...

     I was talking to a couple of people today about blessings.  We talked about the blessings that God has given us and how with what God blesses us we can bless others.  Even in hard financial times, we can still bless others. Everything has a season, we all have our ups and downs, but if we, as Christians, are able to help those around us we should.  There would be no reason for anyone to be in need if, as community, we acted like the people in Acts and shared everything we had to offer (Acts 4:32).
    "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." (Matthew7:7).  Although at the same time, we have to be willing to ask for help.  No one is perfect and we all struggle in life, but how many of us are willing to share our struggles with others and ask for help?  I use to have a hard time asking others for help but you know what?  Once I opened up to others and shared my feelings and my need, people responded!  You would be amazed to see how many people are willing to help if you just ask.  Be humble. Be honest. And see how God works through others.
