HE STILL BLESSES

Gen 17:17
17 Then Abraham bowed down to the ground, but he laughed to himself in disbelief. "How could I become a father at the age of one hundred?" he wondered. "Besides, Sarah is ninety; how could she have a baby?" NLT
** Here again as yesterday, I find that God looks beyond our perfections and sees that we are only human. In one aspect Abraham bows down to God but during the bowing, he laughs to himself in disbelief! And what does God do? He blesses Abraham in spite of his unbelief. I think often times we get caught up in walking and talking so perfectly so we don’t mess up God’s promises or blessings in our lives that we forget what an awesome God we serve. Now don’t get me wrong, I think we should have good confessions and we should live as sinless as we can. But I think because we fail sometimes, we think we have broken the blessings that God has for us. Well, I believe that God is bigger than us and He looks at our heart and acts upon our heart before He acts on our flesh. All thru the bible you will find one mess after another of men and women who didn’t act like they should be blessed by God and yet God still gave them the blessing or did some miraculous thing among them. I do try to please God with my flesh in the best ability that I have, but I know when I mess up and sin, God looks beyond my flesh and sees what’s in my heart.
