“Temporal blessing, as well as spiritual blessings, comes from God. He is the sovereign disposer of all blessings. If it is received by birth or inheritance, it is by His providence, If it comes by gift, He moved the donors to bestow it. If it accumulates as the result of hard work, or skill, He bestowed the talent, directed its use, and granted the success.”

The Blessings come from God. - Arthur Pink
