Who Am I That You Bless Me So Much

1 Chron 29:6-14
6 Then the leaders of families, the officers of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and the officials in charge of the king's work gave willingly. 7 They gave toward the work on the temple of God five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, ten thousand talents of silver, eighteen thousand talents of bronze and a hundred thousand talents of iron. 8 Any who had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the temple of the LORD in the custody of Jehiel the Gershonite. 9 The people rejoiced at the willing response of their leaders, for they had given freely and wholeheartedly to the LORD. David the king also rejoiced greatly.
David's Prayer
10 David praised the LORD in the presence of the whole assembly, saying,
"Praise be to you, O LORD,
God of our father Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.

11 Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.

12 Wealth and honor come from you;
you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.

13 Now, our God, we give you thanks,
and praise your glorious name.

14 "But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.


God is so good and He has blessed me with so much. I should praise Him through giving. It shows here that all thing come from the Lord, even the thing that we give.

We must thank the Lord God with all our hearts because He has blessed us tremendously. The Lord gives all things.

Father, I thank you for all these blessings that you have passed my way. I praise your name for all your love. Lord, as shown in this passage, who am I that you bless me so much. Who am I that your grace has fallen on me. Lord, I thank you for you for your everlasting love for me. I praise your name and honor you with my life. Thank you. In all these things I pray in Jesus name.
Amen.
