You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you. Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table. Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the LORD. The LORD bless you from Zion! May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life! May you see your children’s children! Peace be upon Israel!
Lord, Your blessings do flow continuously in a rich and bountiful stream. I am surrounded! The problem is that I am oblivious to much of it, accepting these gifts as a matter of course. How can I become more sensitive to these outpourings of Your love for me? By paying heed to every word that proceeds from Your mouth!
