#Blessed

We generally define blessings as parts of a successful life, such as material wealth or pedigree. By looking at blessings through a Christian lens, they are instead gifts from God, through which we can participate in the flourishing of creation. Through the story of Jacob wrestling with God, we learn we can curse ourselves by taking God's blessing in our own hands. But even if we mistrust God's abundance, God's blessings can still accomplish His plan through us.
