"Counting Your Blessings"

     Some of you sometimes wonder if I ever tire of My children asking for this or asking for that, and in other words, just expecting Me to be at their beck and call no matter what, and that is not the way it works. What some of you need to realize is that every day you are allowed to awake and live is a blessing in itself. If you were blessed to have shelter, and inside that shelter, there was warmth or coolness, depending on the season, then you were blessed. If you are able to walk on your own or even run, then you are blessed, My friend. If you have clothes to wear, shoes for your feet, or a way to protect yourself from the weather, then you are blessed. If you are able to see, hear, speak, smell, or even feel, then you have been blessed. If indeed you are able to think, you are blessed. I realize that to many of you, these things are taken for granted and are not enough to satisfy or keep you content, which means that you might be one who cannot be satisfied or content, because of your desire for more and more things.
     Now listen, My children, it is not the fact that I do not want to bless any of you more, only that I would love for more of you to be able to appreciate whatever blessings you have been given already. Many among you walk around looking at and envying what others have, and are comparing what they have to you, which is not a very wise thing to be doing at all. One reason why it is not is that I might not be The One Who has done anything at all to help them. Another reason could very well be, is that you do not know all of the particulars of a person's life. How much they make, how wise the are with their earnings, whether or not what they have was given to them, or maybe they are just hard workers. It is much better to keep your eyes in your own backyard, so to speak, as you mind your own business. May you learn to appreciate your own blessings, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN
