20 “Asher’s food will be rich;
he will provide delicacies fit for a king. Genesis 49:20
Leah named her son, “blessed” because she was blessed. Asher’s land allotted to him was very fertile, and indeed he was blessed.
If you are reading this, you are blessed.
If you can read and write, you are blessed.
If you have shelter, clothing, and food, you are blessed.
You see, we take for granted many of the simplest of blessings we have.
Stop and take a moment to count those blessings. Sure, name them one by one.
(And if you’re old enough to remember it, that song will be in your head for the rest of the day!)
