Life Is a Gift

Today before you say 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’s crying out to the Master of Destiny for a companion.

Today before you complain about life -Think of someone who died too young.

Before you complain about your children -Think of someone who desires children but is barren.

Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn’t clean or sweep –

Think of the people who are living on the streets.

Before whining about the distance you drive-Think of someone who walks the same distance.

And when you are tired and complain about your job -Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another –

Remember that not one of us is 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.
