Experts say the US economy is improving. For those out of work and lacking the resources to live an abundant life, the economy may seem less than improved. Truly, it is all very relative. If you are well off or at least making ends me, you may feel good about the economy and what you are able to provide for yourself and your family. No matter the circumstance, however, God promises to provide all that you need. We are reminded of this when we see a sparrow in the sky or a beautiful setting where animals reside in nature. In fact, you may not even recognize the provisions God has so generously given unless you look at the world through a lens of simple gratitude.
Sunlight, clear starry nights, a gentle breeze on a warm day, the beautiful ocean all point to the grace and goodness of God. These, and so many other miraculous treasures that surround you, may go unnoticed and unappreciated. It is not about fancy cars, electronics, and designer clothing. God's provisions are more glorious than these man-made things. In fact, when you have Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior you already have all you need.
As you stopped to count your blessings, remember to thank God for all he has provided from the miracle of another day to the loved ones and friends you call your own. See, your blessings already have your name on them. When you seek God and make him your priority he will always provide.
"But first seek the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6:33
