You Can't Beat God's Giving

So I was getting ready to shower & go to sleep when I started singing praise songs and then I said to myself, "I have to post this... now." So here I am lol A week ago during my devotion I was doing the same thing, singing and I started singing a song that we sing in my church during the time people give their tithes. When I was singing it, I wasn't really connecting with it spiritually because I stopped and thought to myself, this song makes no sense. So I stopped, googled the lyrics I knew for sure and up pops, "You Can't Beat God's Giving." At that moment, just that one line spoke volumes to me and seemed so powerful because I know that my life, as well as many others' stands as a testament to those very words. The part that always baffles me about God is how freely He gives to us, blesses us and covers us, no matter how we're living, what we're doing or even if we haven't done anything at all. We, as people take a lot for granted but fail to realize that even the air we breathe is a precious gift of God that we often times might not be worthy of. I don't know what I've done to deserve all that God's done for me. The fact that God has covered me and kept me for almost 23 years without me having hit rock bottom I feel is a testimony within itself and a lot of people don't see it that way. Reverting back to the song, "You Can't Beat God's Giving" it spoke even greater to me when I pieced those lyrics with the rest of the song: "You can't beat God's giving no matter how you try." No matter how much you give God, He's always going to give you something greater which should be a comfort to everyone. Despite the fact that God knows we're going to fail in some form or fashion ("For all sin & fall short of the glory of God..." Romans 3:23) He showers us with blessings, no matter how big or small you might think it is. What greater love is there than that?
