How we Shut out our Blessings




“Blessed are those, who obey our Precious Savior, for the peace of the living God comes to the obedient.  These are the true peace keepers; for the gift of peace is given to the truly obedient, and this gift of peace is theirs to keep through the worst of times.  How blessed are the true peace keepers; for they are the obedient ones.” – Linda Newkirk

How we shut out our blessings

Oh, how we shut out our blessings by groaning and complaining, by making unreasonable demands, and by having an undue sense of entitlement. Remember how angry our Savior was with us in the wilderness? For, the people whined and they complained? They provoked the Lord, our God, with their complaining, whining, with their lack of gratitude and great selfishness. How they pitied themselves, even in the face of such great and wonderful miracles! (Deuteronomy 14) They thought that they were entitled to so much more! Even the great miracles of our Mighty God were not enough to please them!
An undue sense of entitlement
What is an undue sense of entitlement? An undue sense of entitlement is expecting things of others that we have no right to expect. 
These unmet expectations will then begin to eat away at one’s peace of mind and to create resentments within one’s heart and thoughts, thereby isolating one from loved ones, or causing burn-ups and blow-ups. For, the one, who feels wrongly entitled to something will have some sort of emotional melt-down when these irrational expectations are not met!  At the root of any undue sense of entitlement is one thing: SELFISHNESS.
SELFISHNESS BREEDS ISOLATION. SELFISHNESS BREEDS GREED. SELFISHNESS BREEDS AN UNDUE SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT. SELFISHNESS IS ALL CONSUMING. SELFISHNESS CUTS ONE OFF FROM OTHERS AS SELFISHNESS IS ALWAYS ALL ABOUT SELF. SELFISHNESS SHUTS OUT THE LIGHT OF GOD. SELFISHNESS ALIENATES ONE FROM THE LOVE OF OTHERS. SELFISHNESS ALIENATES ONE FROM THE LOVE OF GOD AS SELFISHNESS IS A BOTTOMLESS PIT, WHICH CAN NEVER BE FILLED.IN SELFISHNESS THERE IS NO LOVE. SELFISHNESS IS A BLACK EMOTIONAL HOLE.  SELFISNESS IS MANIPULATIVE AND CONTROLLING AND DOES NOT WISH TO BE SEEN FOR WHAT IT IS. UNDERSTAND? But, on the other hand…
Love is so precious!
Love thy neighbor as thyself
(Leviticus 19:18)
Most importantly, selfishness is the enemy of love; for my Dear Ones, love truly gives without expecting anything in return.  Love truly is kind. Love is full of true compassion and real concern for the welfare of others.  Love always wishes the highest good for others and is never controlling.  Loves gives and love heals.
Yet, at times, love may also be tough; for true love is the absolute flow of the purest light of God and it is true. Therefore, true love must also be true and must deal in truth, but even so, true love is absolutely forgiving; and when it forgives, it truly no longer remembers the wrongs.
True love covers an array of wrongs; for true love,  loves,  in spite of the faults and shortcoming of others.  True love looks past the sins and sees at a level, which is beyond this world; for true love is not based on anything of this world, but comes through us from the very source or all love, FROM THE HEART OF OUR LOVING SAVIOUR.
 BLESSED IS THE ONE, WHO TRULY LOVES OTHERS, WHO GIVES AND EXPECTS NOTHING. BLESSED IS THE ONE, WHO IS TRULY HIS BROTHER’S KEEPER, GIVING AND EXPECTING NOTHING.
BLESSED IS THE ONE, WHO WILL LAY DOWN HIS, OR HER LIFE, FOR HIS BROTHER OR SISTER, A SELFLESS LOVE, A LOVE, WHICH IS NOT  INTENT UPON SELF-PRESERVATION, BUT IN THE GIVING AND IN THE SUSTAINING OF LIFE.
YES, IN THE LOSING OF ONE’S LIFE IN SUCH LOVE, ONE WILL THEN FIND LIFE, EVEN LIFE ABUNDANT. 
Such terrible times are upon us all! Will you love your life unto death, fighting with guns and swords, or will you give your life totally to our Blessed Savior, loving Him above all, and loving others, even as you love yourself, that you might find your life, even life eternal?
“And the work of righteousness shall be peace;
And the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance forever!”
(Isaiah 32:17)
Blessed are those, who obey our Precious Savior, for the peace of the living God comes to the obedient.  These are the true peace keepers; for the gift of peace is given to the truly obedient, and this gift of peace is theirs to keep through the worst of times.  How blessed are the true peace keepers; for they are the obedient ones. 
Glory, glory, glory to the Lamb of God, forever and ever. Precious is the Holy Name of Jesus, the Name above all names.  He is worthy, worthy, worthy is the Lamb!
The Pure of Heart will see our Savior’s face
Are you ready to weep for your sins? Are you ready to plead with your whole heart for our Savior to heal your brokenness and to make you whole emotionally? Are you truly ready to forgive and to forget?  Are you ready to stop playing emotional barter games, which leave others tired and exhausted, who are shaking their heads and trying to figure out what the problem is? Are you ready to be brutally honest with yourself, really wanting to see the truths of all things, which are stored in your heart?
If you will not answer yes to all of these things and be extremely determined to overcome all of your hurts and sorrows and to have a clean heart, you will not overcome. And, if you do not overcome these negative things, which are stored in your heart and will not love and forgive others, regardless of what they have done to you, you will not have a clean heart.  The lack of forgiveness will surely grow a bitter root.
But, if you are extremely determined, you will overcome. Blessed are the overcomers; for their rewards are great in the Kingdom of our Savior.
And, blessed are the pure of heart, for they will see our Savior. The pure of heart forgive and understand the need for forgiveness. The pure of heart will enter into the kingdom of our God. Do not put off this most important of works!  Don’t let this work slide!  The Kingdom of our God is truly at hand!
