"In everything give thanks for this is
the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you"
1 Thessalonians
5:18
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, in your wallet,
and spare
change in a dish someplace ...
you are among the top 8% of the world's
wealthy.
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness
...
you are more blessed 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 more blessed than three
billion people in the world.
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 healing touch.
If you can read this message, you 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 that cannot read at
all.
Have a good day, count your blessings,
and pass this along
to remind everyone else
how blessed we all are. Go, do all that is in
your
heart, for the Lord is with you.
Isn't God good? Hasn't He been so good to
you?
"Count your many blessings, name them one by one.
And it will
surprise you what the Lord has done"
Father bless this one reading this
and may they be
so thankful, that it will just bubble out of them and
radiate in their face, for your glory, In Jesus' name.
