You are Blessed!

We have recently switched to a new curriculum in KidzQuest, and this week we will talk on all the blessings that God gives us. Rather than write a devotion of my own this week, I wanted to share a bit from the “Support” section of our lesson today. This is one of the sections meant to build up and encourage the leaders presenting the lesson, I feel it could do the same for you. - Brent

“Let’s face it: We lead lives that are jam-packed. Our schedules are filled with work, meetings, and to-do lists. In the face of so much going on, it can be easy to lose sight of how God is uniquely blessing you this week, today, and right now.

Spend some time alone with God this week. Pray and ask Him to remove your distractions. Take out a sheet of paper and a few colored markers, and start jotting down all the ways God has blessed you this week. Each time you pause to think, pick up another marker. Are you surprised by what God brought to mind?

Keep the list in your pocket, or tape it somewhere you’ll be able to see it for the rest of the week. Use it as a reminder to thank Him for blessing you. Each time you see it, shoot up a prayer of thanks for how massively He is pouring out His love to you. Furthermore, let it be a reminder of our responsibilities to be generous like God, and consider how (in the midst of such blessing) you can bless those around you.
