and then i remember...

"And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased." Hebrews 3:16

Fed the dogs my leftovers...
Couldn't decide what to wear...
Jealous my car isn't a self-start...
Ill about cat hair everywhere...
                                                   and then i remember.

And just what did i remember? 

... the innocent faces depending on school for all their meals.
... the children in soiled clothes and shoes too big.
... students coming to school in a beat-up taxi.
... the girl with roaches in her book bag.

And what i remember the most... their constantly, sweet smiling faces, no matter what their hardships or difficulties. How dare i not be grateful, always! 

God, how come those with less sometimes have more peace?  Is to have less best, reminding us to depend on You for everything? Is this the key to peace?  Your blessings to me are meant to be shared -- to flow from You to me to others.  The Truth is, in giving we all receive more.  Thank You, Father!

have a sharing-filled day!
