Could your hearts desire be to be blessed?
Could it be that you desire that your blessings will not be just a cupful but blessings that flow to your children and their childrens children?
That wealth and riches will be yours and not know lack?
That your good works continue long after your death?
Could it be that you desire that with all that you do, you bring hope, you bring joy, peace to the hurting?
Could it be that you desire to be gracious and full of compassion for our fellow weak humans? Patient, understanding, easy to forgive, and does right even when its easy not to ?
Could it be your desire to be a person who handles others kindly, gently and lends to others; hande all your business with discretion and wisdom?
That your ground is hard to shake when hard times hit home?
That your hand stretches far and easily gives to those who lack?
Could you desire that you will be recognised and your enemies grieved by all this?
Its simple my friend, revere the Lord and follow the commands He's set out for you. Thats all it takes.
(Revised from Psalm 112)
