If
you woke up this morning
with more health than
illness, you are more
blessed than the million
who won't 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 20
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 world's wealthy. |
|
|
|
If
your parents are still
married and alive, you
are very rare, especially
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. |
|
|
You
are so blessed in
ways you may never
even know.
