Howdy,

Been here for a little over a week, just found this section for newbs to post on.

Not sure I understand the whole Blessings, Power, Reputation thing, but Im thinking I dont want my numbers to get high, sort of reminds me of the Pharisees, and how they dressed to be seen...as important (ego...BAD)

What happens if no one blesses someone, is that more of a stigma on the people who should be blessingothers, but aren't, than on the one who would like to receive, or really needs a blessing? Its cute and all, but seems to have huge potential to isolate folks, and devalue them, Im sure thats NOT the intention.

Anyway, a little explanation of how it works would be well received.

Blessings to all who stumble upon my ramblings :D

Hi welcome to the Christian forums. :) Hope you enjoy your stay. I see your point about blessings - it's a good one, but I have not heard anyone complain. I thought it was just a nice way to say welcome to the forums or to give someone who did not have many blessings. God bless.
