Rich with no sorrow

"The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it." (Proverbs 10:22)

The blessing of God is on us. It is not something you have to work to obtain or achieve but simply accept. You are blessed not because of anything that you have done but because of what Jesus Christ has done for you. The Grace of God is on us and when we surrender to His Grace we are overwhelmed with riches beyond our imagination.

The blessing is not just tangible wealth but treasures such as good health, peace, joy, love and authority. When we live in the blessings of the Lord our lives bless others. God's Presence is the blessing, it is heaven on earth and where His presence is there is liberty. We are free to be ourselves in His presence because of Jesus Christ.

We can struggle our entire life trying to possess riches and wealth but there is a cost to everything we possess on our own. We can neglect our children and spouse. We can lose our health. We can worry about losing our possessions. We can be stressed out for overworking. Whatever it maybe their is a price to prosperity.

But the blessing of the Lord has already been paid for. Jesus Christ paid the price for us to live blessed. Our faith in Jesus Christ covers our lives in the blessing. No matter where we are we are blessed through our faith in Him. We don't have to covet money for it will only bring sorrow and pain. "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." (I Timothy 6:10) But godliness brings great gain. "But godliness with contentment is great gain" (I Timothy 6:6) Our faith is the key to living in the blessing of the Lord. Let us stop trying to make ourselves rich and just accept the inheritance of our Father for it unlimited and made especially for us. God bless you.
