Beggars Of Heaven

Beggars Of Heaven…

When my father was very young he would often see people in restaurants eating things he wanted. He would go to the other tables and beg for food. When his father saw this, he was embarrassed because it was a reflection of him.

So it is for the children of God. When we live as desperate, needy people, always feeling the need for love, the approval and acceptance of others, and needing what other people have, we are dishonoring Him.

If we live to get success and comfort from this world or to take from this world, we will be miserable; we are saying He is not taking care of us. We are testifying against our heavenly Father. We are an embarrassment to the kingdom.

He commanded us to rejoice; it’s a great thing. Be joyful, it’s okay, it’s a command. You are a child of God, a child of the King. Stop being needy; stop living like a beggar. You have everything you need.

Remember that you’re a reflection of your Father in heaven. He is the God of all, and God called you to live like the child of a King–not like a beggar.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33

Today don’t live in need, but truly as a child of the king – giving and blessing.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed
