Bono the Preacher?

A week or so ago I listened to Bono’s message that he gave to the national prayer breakfast in Washington, DC recently. It is worth watching. You can watch it below.

One of the most salient things Bono shared was how he used to always be asking God to bless what he was doing…bless his work, his albums, his concerts, etc. He then shared that one day he had a wake-up call. He was talking with a wise mentor of his and his friend told him: “Stop asking God to bless what you are doing. Get involved with what God is already doing because he has already blessed that.”

What if we all did this? What if we all, instead of asking that God pay attention to us and bless us, what if instead we started paying attention to God and what he was already blessing and got involved?
