Blessed to Bless
"A faithful man will abound with blessings,
But he who hastens to be rich will not go unpunished."
(Proverbs 28:20)
My wife Ashley and I enjoy blessing other people, especially those who come to our home. Every person who comes to our house hears about Jesus. They may be there to repair or install something, but the real reason they are in our home is for us to tell them about Jesus. On Friday, two men came to our house early to install the new washing machine we purchased at Home Depot. Our goal was to ensure the missionaries staying in our home this week will be able to wash their clothes. We were happy to get this done before we left for Israel.
The two gentlemen who installed the washing machine were polite and wasted no time taking out the old machine and installing the new one. They almost got away without me telling them about the Lord. In fact, I had to go outside and catch them before they drove away! Ashley blessed them with some drinks, cash, and muffins, and I got to bless them by telling them about the Lord Jesus.
All followers of Jesus have been richly blessed with the gift of salvation. God has saved us, written our names in the Lamb's Book of Life, and we are heaven-bound! He has left us on earth so that we might be His witnesses and ambassadors. The Lord's mission while on earth is the same task for His Church today: "For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10).
Today is Giving Tuesday. Every first Tuesday of December is a special day to support our favorite non-profits. Ashley and I are blessed to be able to support a number of Christian ministries that we love and believe in. I invite you to find one or two and bless them financially. We would be honored to have you invest in our ministry here at the Danny Forshee Evangelistic Association (DFEA). Ashley and I started DFEA over 20 years ago. God has been so good to us to help reach many with the Gospel and the Word of God. When you give to DFEA, you help us minister to many through our daily devotions, weekly podcast episodes, and mission endeavors all over the world.

When it comes to the blessings of God, we can do one of two things with them: we can be faithful stewards and bless many others in turn, or we can seek only to hoard our wealth and make more of it for ourselves. The Bible warns against the latter but fully embraces the former. Every follower of Jesus is blessed to be a blessing. It gives Ashley and I much joy to give our tithes to our local church (Great Hills Baptist Church in Austin, TX) and to give above the tithe to many wonderful mission opportunities.
Before you get going with your day, pause and ask God who He wants you to bless today. Then, go and be a blessing!
