the Hebrew word for blessing is, ‘berach’, which means ‘knee or bow to’. When we bend our knee to another, we are showing a humble and subservient nature. Through the blessing, we give our active and emotional support for another’s talent and internal power.
Each of us possess a talent or power that is unique and unlike any other individual’s on this planet. The Creator never manifests two individuals to be the same and, through the blessing, we are honoring that which is different in others. Most people believe God wants man to bow to it and serve God, yet that is not the deeper message of the blessing.
Many believe mankind should bow down to the Godliness. However, this is a misconception and not what God desires from its creation. What the Elohim desires is for each man to bow down to another, for one culture to bow to another culture, and for one nation to bow to another nation.
The Elohim wants mankind to recognize each of us is a facet of the Godliness, existing through different levels of awareness, their nature embedded with various talents and perspectives. God desires for man to accept one another for who they are and help them grow into their highest potential.
Through the blessing, we bless another’s potential and forego bragging about our own. To bless another requires humility and a sense of vulnerability. Yet, those who are wise and aware will come to realize through the blessing and support of another, we not only find their greatness, but the greatness that is our own.
