"...and enlarge my territory" ~I Chron 4:10~

Jabez asked God to enlarge his territory. This could literally be land, territory he owned and managed. But it may have been his territory of influence, the number of people he could be a positive Godly example to. Sometimes when we pray for a blessing, God picks us up out of our circumstances and sets us in a new place. Other times, He opens our eyes to a new perspective, blessing the circumstances we are already in, and blessing our mindset while we are here. God, I beg that You create more "God-ordained moments" in my day, to share Your love with others. Let praise be on-going from my lips to Your heart through out my life, let my joy be contagious. Enlarge my territory, however You see best...and let me always, always see You in every situation.
