What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger!

I asked God why I wasn't rich.

He showed me a man with the wealth of a thousand kings who was lonely, and had no one to share it with.

I asked God why He'd allowed me to become old.

He showed me a boy of 16,

who lay dead at the scene of a car accident.

I asked God why I didn't have a bigger house.

He showed me a family of six

who had just been evicted from their tiny shack,

and were forced, to live on the street.

I asked God why I had to work.

He showed me a man, who couldn't find a decent job,

because he'd never learned to read.

I asked God why I wasn't more popular.

He showed me a socialite with a thousand friends

who all left the moment the money and parties were

no longer there.

I asked God why I wasn't smarter.

He showed me a natural born genius,

serving life in prison for making ill use of his knowledge.

I asked God why He put up with a thankless sinner like me.

He showed me His Bible.

He showed me His Son

who took my place at the judgment.

I knew then how much He Loved me.

What's eating you today?

Are your problems weighing heavy on your heart?

Know then, that you are loved.

Have a WONDERFUL day!!!
