Why Me Lord?

Why Me

Song by CeCe Winans ‧ 2017

Why me Lord
What have I ever done to deserve even one
Of the pleasures I’ve known
Tell me Lord
What did I ever do that was worth loving You
Or the kindness You’ve shown

Lord help me Jesus I’ve wasted it so
Help me Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed You so
Help me Jesus my soul’s in Your hands

Try me Lord
If You think there’s a way I can try to repay
All I’ve taken from You

Maybe Lord
I can show someone else
What I’ve been through myself
On my way back to You

Lord help me Jesus I’ve wasted it so
Help me Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed you so
Help me Jesus my soul’s in Your hands

Try me Lord
If you think, there’s a way
I can try to repay
All I’ve taken from You
Maybe Lord
I can show someone else
What I’ve been through myself
On my way, back to You

Lord help me Jesus I’ve wasted it so
Help me Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed You so
Help me Jesus my soul’s in Your hands
Jesus my soul’s in Your hands

When you are blessed divinely it’s hard to know how to respond… When it wasn’t your jurisprudence from Harvard Law School, nor your DNA from your mother who was a Federal court Judge, nor your Father who owns and operates a diamond mine in Somali, Africa… it’s not even all the reference letters you have from Democratic and Republican Senators.

Still you have been blessed by the Divinity and Mercy of All Mighty God, The Alpha and The Omega, The Creator of the entire Galaxy – how do you react? Should you give credit to the size of your faith or the size of Elohim’s mercy? Do you rub it in the face of all the people, places and things that have obstructed you, and caused you pain and suffering? Do you call your hacker who has written code against you to prevent you from succeeding on the internet? What do you do?

Well… I asked a robot and this is what she dictated:

When Jehovah blesses you, the appropriate response is to express sincere gratitude through prayer and praise, acknowledging his goodness and using the blessings to serve him and others, while avoiding pride and focusing on giving glory to God for the blessings received.

Key points to remember:

Thankfulness: Express your appreciation to Jehovah through prayer and verbal thanks for the blessings he has bestowed upon you.

Humility:

Don’t attribute your blessings solely to your own efforts, but recognize that they come from God.

Stewardship:

Use your blessings responsibly and in a way that aligns with God’s will, serving others and sharing your gifts.

Sharing your faith:

When you receive blessings, consider sharing your faith with others and explaining how Jehovah has provided for you.
