I got this from another list and found that it very true!
Nancy
Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when
the alarm rings, thank you, Lord, that I can hear.
There are many who are deaf.
Even though I keep my eyes closed against the morning
light as long as possible, thank you, Lord, that I can see.
Many are blind.
Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising,
thank you Lord, that I have the strength to rise.
There are many who are bedridden.
Even though the first hour of my day is hectic, when
socks are lost, toast is burned and tempers are short, my
children are so loud, thank you, Lord, for my family.
There are many who are lonely.
Even though our breakfast table never looks like the
pictures in magazines and the menu is at times
unbalanced, thank you, Lord, for the food we have.
There are many who are hungry.
Even though the routine of my job is often monotonous,
thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to work.
There are many who are jobless.
Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to
day and wish my circumstances were not so modest,
thank you, Lord, for life.
Pass it on.....
