I remember back in the 80’s, after I first had gotten saved.  Whenever someone asked you how you were doing, you would respond “I am blessed”.  It didn’t matter if you didn’t feel that way or not.  It didn’t matter if had just lost your job, dog just died, and car had a flat tire.  We just answered, “I am blessed.”   We did it as a faith statement. I know that a faith confession is important.  But the truth is, we probably didn’t totally understand what blessing really was.   Today, we are going to be looking at what it means to be blessed.
