In my walk with God, I have noticed something interesting. There is a difference between a blessing that God wants to give to us in His goodness and a blessing that we try to obtain out of Him. Many times we have desired many things and have tried to make it happen in our lives knowing that God is a good God who longs to bless His children. However, we notice that God giving us a blessing is one thing. We trying to wrest it out of Him is another. We finally get blessed anyway. But God gives us enough hints (sometimes subtle) to see that we have the rose but we have also scratched ourselves somewhat in the process. He wants us to see that it is more wise for Him to decide how to bless us rather than we ourselves deciding how the blessing should be.
