Daily Loading of Benefits

Our God is so very good to us. Just reading in the psalms, and in Psalm 68:19, David declares, "Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation."

Are we taking advantage of this daily loading? We take time to download the latest software, or the latest app that seems interesting. We take time for all sorts of things that are not in the category of needful.

But the spiritual benefits of the Lord are absolutely necessary. He has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness, but these benefits come to us through our knowledge of Him (2 Pet. 1:3).

Whether they be the fruit of the Spirit--love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance--or the ability to put a roof over our heads, these benefits come to us through our firm reliance on the Lord. 

A daily download of spiritual benefits. Opening the heart to God as to a friend. Sitting at the feet of Jesus as did Mary. Taking in all that He has for us. Taking His Word personally and seriously. Such an experience will take us all the way to heaven.
