There are books that focus on giving BLESSING to God, yourself, to your family, and to others. THE BLESSING, by Gary Smalley and John Trent is a very popular book that I read years ago. It will quite probably open your eyes to many new things that you have not contemplated before.
Another one that has become a huge blessing to so many may not have been specifically written for the purpose of teaching blessing. It is titled WHO I AM IN CHRIST by Neil Anderson. When the reader works through the process of this book, she is more ready to bless God, herself, and others. Some fellow mothers and I have committed to read this book this month. It has 38 chapters broken into 3 parts:
PART ONE: OUR ACCEPTANCE IN CHRIST
PART TWO: OUR SECURITY IN CHRIST
PART THREE: OUR SIGNIFICANCE IN CHRIST
What a blessing it is to your family when you, as wife and mother, understand deeply who you are in Christ.
Just this week, after learning about how GOD BLESSES, in our Sunday morning Bible class, a couple from church went to a Michael W. Smith concert. They were very encouraged that he ended His concert by giving his audience THE BLESSING. They brought us Michael W. Smith's book entitled, THE SIMPLE BLESSING.
Here is a YouTube video of Michael "giving a blessing" to a christian school at the end of his chapel talk.
