YOU THINK YOU HAVE NO REASON TO BE GRATEFUL?

Hi friends, beautiful morning from Nigeria.

Early this morning I have been pondering on a song, some things about life and i feel so so grateful to God Almighty.

The song says:

Some have food, but cannot eat, some can eat but have no food, we have food and we can eat, glory be to God Amen.

Some of us are very familiar with that song but maybe we haven't sung it deep and meditated on it.

I could remember then in my primary school days, it was always our song before meals but most times we sing it chorusly and so casually that we don't even get the message the song writer was trying to pass to us.

If you haven't yet gotten the message, sing the song and meditate on it.

Throughout last two weeks, from 29th till 5th of March, I spent those days mostly in the hospital.

A friend of mine gave birth through Cesarean Section and lost the baby girl, so that period i was always around to comfort her, take care of her and make what she would eat till she was discharged.

She's fine now although still healing.

Then at the hospital there was a ward i entered one of the days, it's called A&E (Accident and Em ergency).

When I got there tears started rolling down my cheeks, there was no condition you wouldn't see there.

You would see people that:

• Can't close their mouth

• Those on life support machines

• Those that move their body

• Those that can't even eat

• Those that all they do is to scream in pains.

Injuries everywhere, even those that are crying and rolling on the floor because their relation they just brought in couldn't make it.

I was heartbroken, I never knew that people are in deep pains to such extents.

It made me to really ponder on God's mercies over our lives, some of us are so ungrateful.

Some of us don't even take our time to appreciate God.

Remember that some have food but can't even eat.

Remember that some have money but can't even enjoy it.

What is your own case today?

You may say you don't have money or a job.

Remember that "Health is Wealth"

Why don't you first be grateful to God for life, for strength, we go out daily but the Lord still preserves our lives.

It's not even that we are better than those in the hospital.

Writing this, this early morning i can't just help the tears, God is really merciful to his people.

If you think you have no reason to be grateful to God then visit a hospital nearest to you and see the pain others are going, maybe you will appreciate God better.

No matter what your situation is now never stop being grateful and keep hoping for the best because surely all will be well, you may not be where you want today but give it time and you will surely make it.

Life surely is in different phases, let's try to make our life count at every point in time.
