Our
Blessings
Sometimes we overlook our
blessings!
If you woke up this morning with more health than
illness, you are more blessed than the million who
will not survive the 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 around the world.
If you attend a church meeting
without fear of
harassment, arrest, torture, or death, you are more
blessed than almost three billion people in the world.
If you have food in your
refrigerator, clothes on
your back, a roof over your head and a place to
sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank,
in your wallet, and
spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the
top 8% of the worlds wealthy.
If your parents are still
married and alive, your circumstances
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 God's healing touch.
If you can read this message,
you are more blessed
than over two billion people in the world that cannot
read anything at all.
If you choose to pass this
along, you may be blessed in
ways you may never know.
