We Are So Blessed
 

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 percent of this world.

If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish somewhere, you are among the top 8 percent 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 in a world that is dying from lack of touch, you can offer Spirit's healing embrace.

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.

Remember You Are Blessed.
 
We need to stop and take account of our lives. Most really don’t appreciate how blessed we are. We need to stop and look those precious people in our live and remind ourselves we are blessed.  We need to start counting our blessings instead of our wants.. and we will soon be thanking God for His goodness.

“Since coming to Orange Hills a few months ago, God has completely transformed my life. I
can’t believe how
dramatic the change has been!”
 
“The youth group at Orange Hills is amazing! They’ve helped me see
God for who He really is, not just guy up there that I can’t see or touch.”
