Hasgtag Blessed

I am glad so many people are feeling blessed lately.  I'm glad people are recognizing their blessings, and being grateful for them.  I just hope all the blessed people acknowledge that all true blessings come from God, from fearing and obeying Him.  I know He gives good gifts to all, both to those who live according to His will, and to those who don't, (Matt. 5:45), but the blessings He gives to those who don't fear Him or live according to His will are just temporary.  Unbelievers may be very blessed in this life, only to be separated from God and all His mercy and goodness in death.  (Luke 16:25.)  Jesus came to give abundant life, (John 10:10), and this abundant life consists in knowing God. (John 17:3.)  Therefore, let Christians take heart, knowing that they are truly blessed-regardless of their circumstances-because they know God.  And let all who are blessed acknowledge and praise God, the giver of all good gifts,
