Be a blessing

           Today most of us are saddened by thoughts like, “I would have been a blessing to many if I were like queen Esther”. No worries, we can live as a blessing to many no matter what our position in life is.

           Let us look at the life of one such woman in the Bible, Tabitha. She was not as powerful as Queen Esther, the Bible describes her as a disciple who lived in Joppa. The Bible also testifies that she was a woman full of good works and almsdeeds (Acts 9:36). It came to pass that this woman died of sickness and the widows in the city of Joppa could not bear the loss. They wept. The disciples as soon as they heard that Peter was in Lydaa which was close to Joppa sent men unto him, desiring that he would come without delay. So when Peter was come to the upper room where Tabitha’s body lay, all the widows wept and showed Peter the coats and garments Tabitha had provided them, while she was with them. God seeing the tears of these women was pleased to raise Tabitha back to life through Peter so that she could continue to serve the people. The life of Tabitha teaches us that we can serve God just as we are right now.

          So now, do you believe that we can be a blessing right from the position you are? Commit your life into God’s hands and He will bless you. Serve Him with all that you have even if it is something negligible.

Prayer:

Loving Lord,

         Help us to use our talents and blessings for your glory. Help us to be a blessing to the people around us in our day to day lives. In Jesus most precious name. Amen.
