We Are Blessed
Jun/0964
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million people 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, or torture of 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 some place, you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealthy.
If your parents are still married and alive, 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 of us can, but most do not.
If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read anything at all.
When you compare our day to day problems with bigger problems around the world our troubles may not seem so large.

You know most of us “luck alot”,we think!…not until you read such amassage and you wakeup.In most case we forcus at the things of the world and we forget the one who gives it.Yet he says seek the kingdom of God first and others will follow.
Thanks alot for the massage…may God always be the first in our hearts and not worldily pressures coz they can’t satisfy us like he does.
God bless u.

My Sweetie Baby, “BARRY”, I knew you felt a bit off color today, but in some ways you are still blessed. Sometimes GOD gave us a reminder to get back to Him, and pray. through sickness.But in a lot of ways, you are so much blessed , you have lots of LUXURIES in life that others don’t have. I am blessed to have YOU in my Life, and a job, and saved money, to be able to travel and visit you every year. But most of all, WE are so BLESSED, that GOD has given us the best of health, to achieve our dreams. I Love You , my BabyB, HUGS AND KISSES…….J …ROOpach….AUS.

One day I was grumbling and muttering about something in my life…and I heard a small voice say to me “What’s your problem.” It was just like someone in the room…I laughed at myself and said to the “voice”… I have No Problem…compared to the millions of people in the world who are sick, hungry and innocent…I immediately felt blessed for everything that I am and have and thanked GOD and asked for forgiveness…Try saying it to yourself…It works !!! Bless you.
