Blessings

I've noticed something lately. Several times now, I've noticed people telling me "God bless you," when responding to the amount of children I have.

"You have seven children?"

"Yes, that's right. Seven."

"God bless you!"

Now, I don't know what these people mean in their hearts by saying this to me, but I'll take a blessing... thank you. I'm reminded of Baalam speaking an unintentional blessing, and the fact that it was indeed God who moved him to pronounce the blessing.

Is God moving these people to bless me and my family? If I am a man of faith, how can I think otherwise? Yes, thank you for pronouncing a blessing upon me, and thank God Almighty for blessing me.
