Blessing After Blessing After Blessing

"From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another."  John 1:16 (NIV)

The Apostle John, the disciple whom Jesus loved, who wrote the gospel which bears his name so that man would believe that Jesus, is The Christ, The Son of God.  In this verse, John clearly stated that because of the grace of God, we have all received blessing after blessing.

We have all been blessed with more blessings than we can count.  God has blessed us all over and over again.  We take most of our blessings for granted, and yet we ask Him for more.  Thank God that the fullness of His grace is "super-abundant" and never ending.  All that we have and all that we are, we have received from Him.  God has blessed us through the fullness of His grace from the breath of life, (Genesis 2:7), and every good and perfect gift, (Psalms 84:11 & James 1:17), all that we eat and drink (Ecclesiastes 3:13), with a good job, wealth, and possessions (Ecclesiastes 5:19), to salvation (Ephesians 2:8), to and including eternal life (Romans 6:23).  God has blessed us with so much that we have to be thankful for, including the gift of His Son, (John 3:16), who hung, bled, died, and rose from the grave so that we could be saved from the penalty of our sins.
