 often times religion tells us that if you want to be blessed it's because you are maybe perhaps prideful you have ego but desire to be blessed is God given desire and God desires to bless us so don't feel guilty don't feel bad and if religion tells you otherwise that poverty is humility for some reason that being belittled being low never been raised on high never been influential position never having more than enough is a good thing is a humble thing is being humble before the Lord it's a lie it's not from God it's not from the scripture because if being blessed would be in a bad thing then God would not bless you God would not promise a blessing in your life
