Song Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Life Is A Gift If you wake up in the morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who won't 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 20 million people around the world... If you attend a church meeting without fear or harassment, arrest,torure or death, you are more blessed than almost 3 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 a bank account and in your wallet, and some spare change, you are amoung the top 8% of the world's wealthy... If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over 2 million people in the world who can't read anything at all... If your parents are still married and alive, you are rare... 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 are not alone in the world... You are blessed in ways you may never know, Count your blessings, Share your blessings with others. whistle Luv all you guys! God Bless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Song Posted June 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 It's ok to feel down, God made us with feelings, just like He has, it means YOU ARE ALIVE! ~ don't let your feelings rule, these are the times when He can step in to soothe your soul if you surrender it all to Him, I'm glad I could contribute something that can provide a little perspective! Take care everyone. 1EYE.GIF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
