Where are your blessings?

Reading: 2 Chronicles 30-31 and John 17

Scripture: 2 Chronicles 31:9 And Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites about the heaps.

Thoughts: As Hezekiah called for the reinstatement of tithes, offerings, sacrifices, and feasts, the Levites did not seem to know what to do with it all and simply piled it up. They were not holding any reverence for the things given to God. We are blessed by God in many ways. When looking at the blessings how are we looking at them? Do we look at them as luck or what I deserve? I have that nice car out in the driveway because I worked hard, saved, and was responsible with my money. Or did God provide you with that car? How are we using that blessings are we hoarding them in a heap that others can see our heaps or are we blessing others? No matter if it’s a car, a house, or a meal we are called to be good stewards of what God has given us. What does your stewardship look like?

Prayer: Lord God Almighty, you are the one who created all things and own all things. You are so generous that you grant us the ability to come to you and ask for our needs. I thank you that you are continually opening the storehouses of heaven and taking care of us. I thank you for my family and the joy that they bring. I ask that you help me open my eyes and walk in your ways. Remove the selfishness in my heart and help me to remember that it is all yours and that you will provide all that I need.
