the true blessing is not found in health, wealth, and prosperity. the true blessing is when the Lord inclines your heart toward Himself and allows you to worship. for worship is not a duty, but rather a privilege given unto us from God. and what is heaven for that matter? what do you think when you think of heaven? is it the gates of pearl or the streets paved with gold? no, for without God and the worship of His Name, would just make it a glittering hell, for it is God that makes heaven heaven. and as it is done in heaven, may it also be done on earth, in our hearts, our thoughts, our desires, to worship the Lord above any other things: gifts, "blessings," ministry, etc.
for Christ is not adorned by jewels or even heaven itself, rather heaven is adorned by Christ, for Christ does not need jewels to increase His appearance, He is an adornment unto Himself. He does not need to put on something to make Himself look splendid and majestic. He is robed in splendor and majesty. He does not do good works. He is good. He does not do acts of love. He is love. all good things find their source from Him. for there is no one like Him. truly He is set apart from the rest.
is heaven the gold, or jewels, or gates of pearl?
is it the angels and singing and glory unfurled?
it is Christ, it is Christ, heaven is adorned by Jesus Christ!
not gems or jewels or all these things,
but to Christ alone all attention bring!
