The great blessings we want to receive,

The great blessing God wants to give

Usually we Christians regard material blessing as the great blessing that God gives to us (Lk. 5:6).

But I think material blessing is a small blessing among the many blessings that God give us.

[“power to make wealth” (Deut. 8:18) is greater blessing that material blessing. 

Material blessing is only a tool to receive greater blessings.]

The great blessing God wants to give us is repentance

through realizing that God is God and we are sinners (Lk. 5:8).

[Who considers the blessing of repentance greater than the material blessing?]

Therefore, the greatest blessing God gives us is that

God calls us and gives us a mission and fulfills His will through us (v. 10).

[Blessed are the Christians who understand that this blessing is

greater and much precious than the material blessing.]
