THE GIFT OF LIFE.

Life is a wonderful gift but it is also challenging and sometimes heart-wrenching. We can all use a little motivation and inspiration from time to time to help us navigate the small and large hurdles we encounter on our journey:
***Today before you think of saying an unkind word–
think of someone who can’t speak.
 
***Before you complain about the taste of your food–
think of someone who has nothing to eat.
 
***Before you complain about your husband or wife–
think of someone who is crying out to God for a companion.
 
***Today before you complain about life–
think of someone who went too early to heaven.
 
***Before you complain about your children–
think of someone who desires children but they’re barren.
 
***Before you argue about your dirty house, someone didn’t clean or sweep–
think of the people who are living in the streets.
 
***Before whining about the distance you drive–
think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
 
***And when you are tired and complain about your job–
think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.
 
***But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another–
remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker.
 
**And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down–
put a smile on your face and thank God you’re alive and still around.

Often times, we are tempted to conclude that our present situation is worse than any other as such loose hope on God's Grace and plan for us.  
Life is not a matter of chance but a matter of Choice.. anything that happens in your life is the outcome of every decision you make..
Decide today to thank God for the Gift of Life he has given you and in Faith, believe that there is a fruitful future irrespective of the odds of today.
GOD is aware of your situation. 
Prayer:
O GOD, satisfy every hungry one,
clothe every unclothed one,
help every debtor pay his debts,
relieve every distressed one,
release every prisoner,
cure every sick one,
ease our poverty by Your wealth.
 
O GOD, Forgive Us when we fail to 
thank/appreciate you for your Gift of Life to us.
