Always Thank God for whatever you have & whoever you are

My mates are getting married. My mates are getting good jobs.

My mates are succeeding. My mates are living overseas. My mates are buying cars. My mates are building houses. My mates are this......my mates are that......

It's a pity you literally forgot about;

Your mates in the mortuary,

Your mates in the psychiatric homes

Your mates are roaming on the streets,
Your mates are jobless, hungry, blind, deaf..........
You might not be where you wish to be but you have obviously
transcended from where you were yesterday.
Be thankful.

Do you know:
Only 6 months left and we say bye bye to 2014?
Some slept yesterday and didn't wake up today?
We're sinners but God showed mercy? 
God still has plans for you before the year ends?
Some mates are there in jail without committing any crime?
You ate last night but some didn't or couldn't?
You have work and sources for daily living while some have nothing to look up to
You are alive not because you are faithful or because you have never sinned before but it is the MERCY of God Almighty that kept you alive.

Can you just appreciate God by sharing this message/post with 20 people in your list AS A Big 'THANK YOU GOD. Have a blessed week ahead
