Scripture: Genesis 43:23 “It’s all right,” he said. “Don’t be afraid. Your God, the God of your father, has given you treasure in your sacks; I received your silver.” Then he brought Simeon out to them. <\/p>\n
Observation: Do we look at the things we have as treasures or something we feel we deserve. The air we breathe each day supplied by God do we even think about it. Our health, the fact that we aren\u2019t\u2019 starving and have shelter. Even the homeless receive treasures from God through His servants. There is so much around us that we take for granted and don\u2019t count it as treasures, but what if we did. What if we saw the truth that God surrounds us with His treasures, wouldn\u2019t we draw nearer to Him, because we would see Him everywhere.<\/p>\n
Application: I need to stop taking each day for granted and start searching for the treasures my father surrounds me with each day. Search for God\u2019s love and provision that is right in front of me, take nothing for granted but treasure God\u2019s grace in my heart and through the abundance of God\u2019s generosity give to others which was given to me. <\/p>\n
Prayer: Dear Father thank you for the wealth in my life that you give to me. I know I can\u2019t repay what you give, but help me have a grateful heart and show you the praise and obedience you deserve from me. Thank you for loving me so much and show me how to love others in glory and honor to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
