So I've been somewhat bothered about the term "blessed" lately. I feel like the term is grossly misinterpreted. It's obnoxious that God is praised only when good (or what is perceived to be so) things are happening.

Who is God then when things are not going your way? What then do you have to say about the Creator? Are you then not "blessed"? Does God at that point cease to be good?

I have to be straightforward and admit this is also a personal struggle. There are plenty of things in my life I'm impatient about. Some of which I would feel "blessed" if I were to suddenly have such things. But I digress.

Are we not already sanctified? Are we not already holy children of God? What else can be done to bring us closer to God?

Just heard this Jim Rayburn quote, "...ain't nothing more that can be done about it!"

So then... I have complete confidence that we are CONTINUALLY blessed... Eternally even! It's just hard to realize it sometimes. We have to revel in that!

That's some exciting stuff right there. We are blessed... Always.
