Psalm 68:18 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits
Today’s Godwink moment. So I mentioned that God put in my heart to give away 100 balls to the kids, because we didn’t have enough last week. Well, Jason Sparks *Simpli Insurance* was used by God to provide those balls! Click here to see the happiness of God’s blessing.

The fact is that God blesses us daily. He loads us up daily. Air. Health. Food. Friends. Finances. Shelter. Jobs. You name it, God loads us up with it daily.
On the other hand, Satan doesn’t load us up with anything, but piles it up on us. Last week I told you about a cancer diagnoses, loosing all my phone, credit cards and all my financial stuff. Also I almost ended up getting arrested and having my only running car confiscated within a few hours of time. God loads is up with blessings. Satan piles it on.
Getting loaded up with blessings or getting problems piled up on us is totally up to us. As we’re going to bed at night we can do like I usually do. I say !thank you God’ for about 3 things that God loaded up on me for the day maybe, and then spend the rest of the night, beating myself up for all the wrong thinking, negligence, wrong attitude, conjugating my Spanish verbs wrong, and you know what? Satan loves it and brings other errors and sins to mind. He’s like, ‘while you’re at it you said the fork in the wrong gender and you didn’t give God the glory when someone thanked you’ (Satan is a lot more religious than I am).
God just loads up our lives with blessings. Whether we think about them or not is up to us. Satan on the other hand is sure pile up problems in our lives, and sure to bring up our failures in our minds. And he insists we think about them.
What you think about all the time is what you are. If you think about God all the time you become like Him. I know church goers who only think of God one hour a week. God is not part of their lives. God is a Sunday morning, Christmas Eve and Easter Sunday thing. They may be good people, but are definitely not becoming like God. People that think worldly thoughts, even if they are doing great things like saving whales and teaching literacy, become less and less like God as time passes, and He becomes less and less important.
Colossians 3:1-2 ESV If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above.
Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
As you think about God, you find that God not only is all you need, but is delightful. Not only does He heal you, but He’s a lot of fun. Serving Him is delicious.
Psalm 1:2 ESV But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.
Thinking God thoughts is good mental health. You will be healthier mentally if you only think God’s thoughts.
Philippians 4:8 ESV Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things….. and the next verse says, ‘And the God of peace will be with you’.
You have a choice. Think about problems and let Satan pile them on you. Or think about all your blessings that the Lord loads up on you with every breath you take. (Note, I am not even talking about blessings like church, fellowship, music, praying, Jesus, the Holy Spirit. All these are even greater blessings that He loads up on us). I am talking about just the basics.
Einstein praised God with his findings. Galileo, DeVinci, Tolstoy all these great minds saw God in everything.
Their minds were being renewed, not just by going to church, but by nature itself, as the basic dogma of Christianity dictates.
Romans 12:2 ESV Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
To top it off, choose what you think about. What you talk about. Be careful little minds what you think. Be careful little eyes what you see. Be careful little tongue what you speak. Be careful little ears what you hear. Focus on God He’s everywhere!
Colossians 2:8 ESV See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.
I am flying into Salt Lake City on Monday, the 13th of February to continue killing all the little ‘c’ pestilances. I am amazed at all the offers, many from complete strangers on FaceBook, for rooms to stay, cars to use, but my dear SaltLakeCity friends came through with everything I needed, including the grueling work of setting up appointments. My doctor down here in Nicaragua was thinking I could go up and get seen the next day. He was astounded how complicated it is anymore. God is sooooo good. PSALM 91
