God Bless You!
If you win a car in a raffle, would you accept 4 wheels and a trunk or do you want the car that was promised to you when you bought your raffle ticket? If you buy a first class seat in a flight would you be okay if they sat you on the last row of the plane next to the bathroom? Would you like to receive only half the blessings God has set apart for you or would you rather get 100% of what He wants to give you? Did Jesus pay “half” the price for our salvation and our right into heaven or did he pay the “full” price? I think we all know that the answers to these questions are big NO’s! Why is it that many times we are not willing to accept these “halfway” things in our daily life scenarios (we would do whatever it takes to get what we paid for or what we won in full) but we are willing to live with halfway spiritual blessings simply because we are not willing to fight for the “full” blessings Jesus died to give us? God is good and loving all the time and He created each one of us to bless us in FULL not halfway! We need to do our part and seek Him earnestly; He will not do our part for us, He has already done His part! He is compassionate to forgive us and shower us with his blessings. We were created to be successful, happy, and blessed not hopeless, unhappy, and cursed. Remember this when you start to feel hopeless: the ship was not made to stay at the harbor, it was built to navigate the oceans; the airplane wasn’t built to stay parked at the airport, it was meant to fly the skies…YOU were created by Almighty God to soar like the eagles and live a life full of victories, not half-way blessings!
