Blessed

Psalm 119:1,2
Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord.  Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
We Christians throw the word “blessed” around in the most improper ways, always counting ourselves blessed when money is in the bank, health is good, and life in general is going our way.
However, the Bible uses the word blessed in so many ways that we usually overlook.
Here, we are called blessed if we keep ourselves holy and obey his commands, and seek him totally with our hearts.
This sort of life isn’t one we live in order to gain material things and stuff; but rather, it’s a life we live in honor, love and obedience to Him because he’s worthy. Period.

We are blessed to have the privilege of knowing, loving and living for Him.
