Leviticus 9: Blessing Others

“Moses and Aaron then went into the tent of meeting. When they came out, they blessed the people.” -Leviticus 9:23

People who spend time in God’s presence are those who serve as a blessing to others. When you look at Facebook or talk to people in your community, much of the talk centers on the negative–the rain, who made you mad, how you didn’t get enough sleep or don’t have enough money. But occasionally we run into people who seem to come from another planet and speak words of thanksgiving and blessing.

What’s the difference? Usually you find these people are spending significant time with God. As a result, their news is an overflow of a heart in love with their Creator.

The answer to blessing others is not in doing more, but in being more–more alive to the presence of God. When we dwell with him, his light shines in all of our actions. We can then truly serve as a blessing to others.
