    You Heard the one about?

    You heard the one about:
    When I was a boy my Father would always tell me this verse every time I complained.
    I cried because I had no hat till I saw a man who had no coat.
    I cried because I had no coat till I saw a man who had no shirt.
    I cried because I had no shirt till I saw a man who had no socks,
    I cried because I had no socks till I saw a man who had no shoes.
    I cried because I had no shoes till I saw a man who had no feet.
    I cried because I had no feet till I saw a man who had no legs.
    I cried because I had no legs till I saw a man who had no life.
    We live in a world of Chaos right now. People put of work, losing their homes, going bankrupt, divorce, sickness, affliction, poverty, loneliness, Political and economic chaos, moral decay.
    Lots of reasons to be depressed, angry, alone and on and on.
    How often do you see someone smiling, laughing or saying a kind word?
    The Bible says “The Joy of the Lord is your Strength” Nehemiah 8:9
    Proverbs 17:22 “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.”
    Who of you can add a single Hour to your life by worrying? Matthew 6:27
    We complain about Politics and candidates, economics and so on but what positive thing have we done to change even ourselves.
    With so much hopelessness in the world you should try a little Joy.
    Go down to your nearest VA hospital or care center and pick out anyone in a wheelchair, or walker, ask them about their service. Complement them, Thank them, encourage them and even pray for them. Show them a little Love and you will feel God’s love. Share Joy and you will feel Joy. Help someone else and you will feel hope. Hug someone who is down and comfort them and you will be comforted.
    It is so simple, yet so seldom do we stop wallowing in our own self pity and Chaotic world ever change by our whining and complaining?
    I watched a man with no feet run in the Olympics the other day.
    What is your excuse? Are you going to be a part of the solution or a part of the problem?
    Lord, empower us through your love to cast down our fear and doubt. Cast off anger and unforgivenes . May we spend pour efforts helping rather than complaining . May we bring some joy into someone else’s life instead of wallowing in our own pity party. You have given us all we need to show love and Love changes everything. AMEN!
