I Dreamed I Went to Heaven
From Robin Niixon
I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around..
"How does one acknowledge God's blessings? "I asked.
"Simple," the angel answered. Just say, "Thank you, Lord."
"What blessings should they acknowledge?" I asked.
"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof
overhead and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a
dish, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy, and if you get
this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has
that opportunity."
"If you woke up this morning with more health than illness. You are
more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day."
"If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of
imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation... You
are ahead of 700 million people in the world."
"If you can attend a church without the fear of harassment, arrest,
torture or death you are envied by, and more blessed than, three
billion people in the world."
"If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you're
unique to all those in doubt and despair......."
"Ok," I said. "What now? How can I start?"
The Angel said, "If you can read this message, you just received a
double blessing in that someone was thinking of you as very special
and you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world
who cannot read at all."
Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you care to, pass this
along to remind everyone else how blessed we all are..........
ATTN: Acknowledge Dept.
"Thank you Lord, for giving me the ability to share this message and
for giving me so many wonderful people with whom to share it."
