If God is prospering you – don’t feel guilty. Ecclesiastes 7:14 says; “When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as the other.”

I’ve been “guilty” of this myself. Things are good and there is no major crisis or trauma pending and I’ll secretly think; “When is the other shoe going to drop?” “How long can this last?” Or, “I better not make too much of this good time; the bottom may drop out at any moment.” Therefore, I effectively rob myself of those good times. Do you do something similar?

Athletes often talk about being in the “zone.” It’s that place where everything is in sync and you are living in present tense – to the fullest. That’s the ticket. That’s how we should live every day, especially the blessing days. We know that life will be a mixture of both good times and bad so why not fully savor the good times? If and when difficulties come; handle it then. Push away that guilt. Push away anxiety that the good will slip away.

Are you in a time of blessing? ENJOY!
