whose blessing?
"Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High, and he blessed Abram, saying, 'Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Crator of heaven and earth. And blessed by God Most High, who delivered your enemies into your hand.'
Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.
The king of Sodom said to Abram, 'Give me the people and keep the goods for yourself.' But Abram said to the king of Sodom, 'I have raised my hand to the LORD, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth, and have taken an oath that I will accept nothing belonging to you, not even a thread or the thong of a sandal, so that you will never be able to say, 'I made Abram rich.''" Genesis 14:18-23.

Whose blessing am I seeking? Does the way I live my life, publicly and privately, internally and externally, reflect my answer to the first question?
