You Are Blessed Not Because Of Yourself But Because Of Others

 I don’t exactly remember who said this but I am sure a priest said this in one of his sermons. “You are blessed not because of yourself but because of others.”

This immediately came to mind when I received a forwarded message “Don’t just count your blessings. Be the blessing  other people count on.”

Ever wondered why God did not bless that person directly?  Why would He bless you instead and expect that you will share it with somebody who needs it more than you do? What if you rejected God’s call to be a blessing to others?

God trusts us so much. He assumes that our generosity will triumph over our own selfishness. Let us not disappoint Him. The next time you receive a hefty amount of money, do not hesitate to share it with me heheheh . . .
