Matthew 13:16+17

But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. For truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

Dear friends,

How easy it is to forget how blessed we are...

God has opened my eyes and unstopped my ears so I can now behold Him and understand things this world is ignorant of.
When reading this passage it struck me how easy it is to take this life with God for granted. How easy it is for me to forget how precious it is to be known by Him.
Not everyone has been given this grace, God chooses whom He wills to know Him. See vs 13-15 and John 6 vs 44 -
No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day.

God choose me...God has chosen you my fellow believer!

May God grant us a greater revelation of how blessed we are and may it encourage us to continue to pray for those whom God has called to know this blessedness too.

In Christ

Cynthia
