Hidden Blessings

God's blessings are numerous in the ways of human
life. There are revealed blessings and hidden
blessings. Revealed blessings are the blessings which
belongs to the past. They consist of wide variety of
physical , social and cultural opportunities given by
the nature. Some of the significant aspects of the
revealed blessings are one's gifts, talents,
opportunities, relationships,parents, sibbilings,
teachers, elders, religion, friends and one's own
personality. Revealed blessings are the template in
which a man develop oneself. It is the credit in which
a man can refer back and rely upon in the difficult
times. While the revealed blessing is an essential
part of a human life the hidden blessings are vital
to lead fufilled evey day life.

Every day is unique in it's nature. Every day brings
different task, different responsibility, different
focus,and different mile stone in the life. Noday is
similar in content although it looks similar in most
of the time. Every day has it's own burden, blessings,
trials, temptations, and strength to win
them. It is well explained in David' psalm as david
prays to God for new anoniting every day. It is also
explained by our Lord Jesus Christ during His worldly
human life as he advices His deciples not to worry
about tommorrow, tommorrow will take care of itself.

Realising the hidden blessings every day is a part
human life. The hidden blessings are designed by God
for every man in his way in the worldly life. I used
to worry about future always. Preparing for the future
consumed considerable amount of time, energy, efforts
of my life. Actualizing the plans to provide a safe
environment for my family and my beloved children was
the major task of my life. Many a times I did not
realize the future belongs to God , he who planted
will take care of them. Most often I had been working
hard to make things happen later realize that it was
planned for me and my family already by God which did
not require such an effort to reach them.
Many of us have a habit of learning things in a hard
way otherwise the acheivement does not thrill us or
bring forth excitement. The unnnessary anxiety,
worries and endeavours are the blinding curtains which
can steal our day today joy , focus, life,
relationships, and success.
It is human to be anxious, restless, charged with
achievement motives. But in all the endeavours
realizing God's will is the key to success.
Acknowledging His presence in all the situation will
bring joy, acomplishment, sense of belongingness,
sense of self esteem, sense of self worth, and
happiness. I am blessed by My heavenly father's hidden blessings
