“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Friday; July 18, 2008

          What does it mean to be blessed?  When most of us ponder the concept of blessings we conjure up images of wealth and health; but, is that what a blessed life is all about? 

          The idea of a wonderful life could probably be better perceived as living a quality existence.  The good life is not  characterized by ample money or a freedom from trial.  The good life is one where God is by our side.  Being blessed isn’t just about what we have been given or what we don’t have to suffer, it’s being in a good relationship with God through a willingness to serve and honor Him.  Centuries ago, one of the most blessed men to ever walk the face of this earth praised God by saying, “How blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord.” (Psalm 119:1)  

          Are we living the good life?  Are we drawing closer to God?  If not, why not start this weekend by gathering together with a group of people who meet to worship the One who truly brings meaning to life.

          Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
