In fact, God wants to bless us—it’s His nature as a Father who lavishly loves His children to pour out His blessings on us. But the reason He blesses us is not so we can be rich and have a lot of stuff and live a life of comfort and leisure. God’s Word tells us, “I will bless you . . . and you will be a blessing to others” (Genesis 12:2 NLT).
