Grace to you and peace, from a God who “comforts the afflicted, and afflicts the comfortable” -- it’s all in grace and peace. AMEN.

“I didn’t do that so that you would hog it all for yourselves. I did that so that you would go and do likewise. I didn’t bless you in order that blessing stops with you. I blessed you so that the whole world would be blessed!”
Once again, God through, this prophet, reminds us today in November 2014, “I’m the one who created you, who brought you up out of all the times of trial you’ve endured -- your own personal Egypt’s -- all the hardships, the brokenness, the pain; I’m the one who brought you here. I’m the one who entrusted you with the blessings that you have today -- with money, with relationships -- family and friends, work, with transportation and communication, with technology and education, with a church, with a beautiful and powerful nation and a stunningly gorgeous landscape, with blue ocean and blue sky and rolling hills and sunshine and crops.
“I didn’t do that so that you would hog it all for yourselves. I blessed you so that you would go and do likewise. I didn’t bless you in order that blessing stops with you. I blessed you so that the whole world would be blessed!”
