“It is wrong to say bad things about your neighbors.
Be kind to the poor, and you will be blessed.” Proverbs 14:21
Most people, when asked, “Would you like to receive
a blessing,” would certainly reply, “Yes!” Even if they weren’t exactly sure
what a blessing is, it sounds positive. And so, like children who want Santa to
leave them something special on Christmas Eve, we respond as well. “If I get to
choose between being blessed or…hmmm…what is the opposite? Cursed? Simply not blessed, like living in a world of
random events? No matter. It doesn’t matter much what the opposite is, I like
the idea of being blessed. Bring it on!”
