MAYBE WE DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND BLESSINGS.

GOD does not withhold Blessings to the repentant and sincere heart.  But HE does withhold Blessing from the wicked, unrepentant  and insincere heart.  Also, we may not receive Blessings for lack of faith (James 1:6-7), for asking selfishly (James 4:3), or asking for something against GOD'S WILL (2 Corinthians 12:8-9).  HAVE WE ASKED AND ASKED, AND STILL NOTHING?  Psalm 103:2-10, "Bless the LORD, O my soul...WHO forgives all your iniquity...WHO satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's...HE does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities..."  When we die we will no longer be thinking about how to make the next dollar or drive a newer car; we will be absorbed in the Presence of GOD as HE reveals HIS mysteries.  Shouldn't those be the Blessings we ask for now, or MAYBE WE DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND BLESSINGS.

GOD IS GOD!
