We have a tendency to overlook our blessing because it doesn't meet the criteria or standard of what we feel it should be. Some of us have been praying for a husband or wife and God may have shown you him or her. But we don't consider the person because we feel they lack qualities that we feel they should have.
The same goes for a new car or home for that matter. God may have shown you the car that's for you but because such and such has a better one then maybe we should hold out and over extend ourselves so we can drive a newer model. God may have shown you the house that's for you as well. Don't look at your gift like, is this all. If God has presented you with a gift understand He has made all the necessary provision on your behalf. He has considered all things and what He has given you not even yourself could come up with something better.
Matthew 7:7-11 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Grab and go: I know we think we know what’s best for us. But who knows us better than we know ourselves, only God. If your still not convinced if this is true. God knows the very number of hairs on your head, do you? (Luke 12:7)
