To feel blessed can mean many different things. To say that you have been blessed can signify how lucky you feel just to be you. Whether it has to do with money, fame, talents you may possess, to feel blessed to have such a supportive family, or to just be alive and waking up every morning. With so many obstacles that everyone has, some a little more than others, it is always good to look toward the things you are grateful for that not everyone has the luxury of experiencing. This could amount from anything as to being grateful you have a roof over your head, food to eat, and fresh water to drink. Some have had near death experiences that change that person for the better, leaving the individual with a sense of being blessed to still be alive.

Saying that you are blessed or that you feel blessed can not only relate to your spiritual well-being, but it can be taken in a religious sense also. As a religious person, you feel as if you are blessed by your guardian angel, the invisible entity that watches over you when times get rough. A simple word such as the word blessed can remind the person they are in safe hands when they may feel scared or alone. If you are a religious person and want the word blessed tattooed on your body for this very reason, an idea would be to get a design such as angel wings or the ‘praying hands’ with the rosary draped around them, inside the graphic or written close by the word ‘blessed’ to remind you of how lucky and grateful you are to have someone watching over you.

Since the word blessed has derived from old English bibles, it only makes sense that if you were to get this tattooed, you have a little faith in your religion. Those who work in high emergency and life provoking jobs such as law enforcement or being a fire fighter risking your life every day to protect others, have a special connection with the blessed tattoo concept. Many of those involved in law enforcement and act as police officers get the phrase ‘Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God’. This is the seventh verse of the Sermon on the Mount, it is also the seventh beatitude, or blessing, listed by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. This saying is popular amongst the law enforcement community because of its meaning. This phrase is meant for those who do not fight, but those who actively bring conflict of whatever sort to an end.
