God Was Blessing

From the beginning of His Covenant with us at Abraham, God made one thing very clear: He wanted to BLESS us! Before Jesus showed us how loving God is, we often thought of Him as a God who was out to get us. But He wasn’t! He was a God who wanted to lavish His love and pour out His blessings on His Children. He is FOR us! When the angel came to Mary to tell her what was about to happen, he told her, “you are highly favored.” That greeting of blessing is for us ALL! We are ALL the “highly favored” children of God!
