"We write our blessings in the sand, and we engrave our complaints in the marble." - Charles Spurgeon
"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits." (Psalm 103:1-12). True blessings are engraved blessings:
I - Illustrated Blessings - Blessings are not only material things.
1. Blessing of Forgiveness - "Jesus forgave all our iniquities." (Psalm 103:3).
2. Blessing of Redemption - Jesus redeemed our life from destruction. He lifted us from slavery to sovereignty.
3. Blessing of Satisfaction - We can only get true satisfaction, contentment and fulfillment from Jesus. We deceive ourselves when we measure our happiness or contentment in life by the amount of wealth we possess. "The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want." (Psalm 23).
II - Balanced Blessings - "The wise should understand the loving kindness of the Lord." (Psalm 107:43)
1. Start looking to the BLESSER instead of the blessing.
2. Don't just enjoy the gifts and forget the GIVER.
3. Don't just look at His hand and forget His HEART.
III - Discoveries In Thanksgiving
1. Be thankful for God's presence.
2. Be thankful for we have the grasp of His hand.
3. Be thankful for the guidance of His Word.
4. Be thankful for we will have the glory of His Heaven.
