The world's idea of #blessed usually comes down to power, possessions, popularity, pleasant experiences, and/or prosperity. But what does God say it means to be blessed?
Being blessed is about the disposition of God toward us.
Being blessed is about the orientation of our lives around God and not the world.
Being blessed is about the anticipation of eternity.
The problem is that none of us qualify to be "blessed." We do not faithfully orient our lives around God and His Word, so we cannot earn his pleased disposition or anticipate eternal life with him... unless we run to Jesus! It is in Christ that we are truly blessed.
