Tip:
" Be thankful to God for all that he has given to you."
Here
is why:
If you live in a
good home, have plenty to eat, can read, and have a computer, you are a
member of a very select group.
And if you have a
good house, food, can read, and have a computer, you are among the very
elite.
If you woke up
this morning with more health than illness, you are more fortunate than
the million who will not survive this week.
If you have never
experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the
agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 500
million people in the world.
If you can attend
a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death,
you are fortunate - more than 3 million people in the world can’t.
If you have food
in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead, and a place
to sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money
in the bank and in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace,
you are among the world’s wealthiest top 8%.
If your parents
are still alive and still married, you are very rare, even in the United
States.
If you hold up
your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are
blessed because the majority can, but most do not.
If you can hold
someone’s hand, hug them, or even touch them on the shoulder, you are
blessed because you can offer a healing touch.
If you can read
this message, you have just received a double blessing in that someone
was thinking of you, and furthermore, you are more blessed than over two
billion people in the world who cannot read at all.
As
you read this and are reminded how life is in the rest of the world,
remember just how blessed you really are! Have a good day and count your
blessings!
