Something I felt I should share...it puts a lot of things in
perspective,
even some of the good natured bickering that goes on in various lists
we
each belong to.


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 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
some place......you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
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 God's healing
touch.
If you prayed yesterday and today........you are in the minority
because you
believe God does hear and answer prayers.
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 who cannot read at all.
