A few weeks back,on my way to the Library,I passed by two handicapped males.They both use the wheelchair for mobility.The first one still had his legs.But my ATTENTION was grabbed by the second one.He had a bright smile,he even greeted me!And as I looked at him I realised his legs were amputated.A sudden question lingered in my mind,how would I survive without legs?
I realised there and then that I'm blessed to have legs-seeing that I love walking.But another question came to mind.Do I relly have a VALID reson to complain about my struggles while there are people who are faced with serious issues?This made me realise,I don't have a REASON.
Why?Because I serve God who's always there to pull me through.No matter how hard it is,God is there.And so I realise it's time to spend more time thanking and praising God for all His goodness towards me.If a handicapped manages to have a bright smile,how much more should I?
A child of God,who always has angels ministering towrds me.I am clothed,I'm in good health and I have a great support system.And the list is endless.
So,ALL I'm saying is:it's better to find good things to smile about as opposed to always looking for faults.Come to think of it,we usually have something to complain about when we start comparing ourselves to others-which is not right at all.
And so,instead of looking elsewhere start looking at your life nd you'll realise you only are to be grateful!God gives us burdens that we're able to bear.And I came across a statement,while reding Patriarchs nd Prophets,which said God allows circumstances to prove and develop character :)!
