Don't Block Your Blessings!

Benita's Lesson of the Day: "Don't block your blessings!"

I recently had an opportunity that presented itself to me.  Instead of taking that opportunity and running with it, I said no to it and walked away.  Immediately after I walked away, I regretted that decision. I spent the last couple of days after that experience kicking myself about it.

Now that I've forgiven myself, I can focus on the take-away from that experience.  That is: "Don't block you blessings!"  Instead of embracing the opportunity, I thought about all the reasons why it wouldn't work and I talked myself out of accepting the blessing.(Who's to say I couldn't deal with obstacles when they arise?)  I know now not to do that.  Whatever future obstacles I think will happen, I will deal with them when they happen.  I will allow the blessing to happen.

The funny things about lessons, they make so much sense after the fact.  But, if we learn something positive from them, it makes the growing pains so much more worth it!

Much Love,
