Blessings Are Meant To Flow Through Us
God blesses us so that we can be a blessing to others.
Blessings are not meant to be hoarded or stored up for ourselves; they are designed to flow through us to those around us. When we give generously—whether it’s our time, resources, or encouragement—we become conduits of God’s goodness in the world. Holding tightly to what we have leads to spiritual stagnation, but open-handed living allows God’s blessings to multiply and impact others. Just as Abraham was called to be a blessing to the nations, we are called to let God’s gifts pass through us, trusting that He will continue to provide as we give. [51:16]
Genesis 12:2-3 (ESV)
"And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."
Reflection: Who is one person you can intentionally bless today with your words, actions, or resources, allowing God’s blessing to flow through you?
