Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness,ignorance, smallness or insecurities; Remember, things could be worse. You could be them!!!

DRINK FROM THE SAUCER
I've never made a fortune, and I"ll never make one now
But it really doesn't matter 'cause I'm happy anyhow.
As I go along my journey
I'm reaping better than I've showed.
I'm drinking from the saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
I don't have a lot riches.
And sometimes the going's tough
But with kin and friends to love me
I think I'm rich enough.
I thank God to the blessings
That His mercy has bestowed.
I'm drinking from the saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed.
He gives me strengh and courage
When the way grows steep and rough,
I'll not ask for other blessings for
I'm already blessed enough.
May we never be too busy
To help bear another load.
Then we'll be drinking from the saucer
When our cups have overflowed

PLEASE GOD GIVE ME
God, give me eyes that I might see
The work that can be done by me;
God, give me ears that I might hear
The cry of those who need me near.
God, give me lips that I might speak
Comfort and peace to all that seek.
God, give me a mind that I might know
How to help those who need me so.
God, give me hands that I might do
Some large or simple task for You;
God, give me a prayer that I might pray
Thy help and guidance every day.
And this one thing, all else above;
God, give me a heart that I might love.

THANK YOU!
To those of you who have pushed me, thank you.
Without you I would have fallen.
To those of you who laughed at me, thank you.
Without you I wouldn’t have cried.
To those of you who just couldn’t love me, thank you.
Without you I wouldn’t have known real love.
To those of you who hurt my feelings, thank you.
Without you I wouldn’t have felt them.
To those of you who left me lonely, thank you.
Without you I wouldn’t have discovered myself.
But it is to those of you who thought I couldn’t do it;
It is you I thank the most,
Because without you I wouldn’t have tried.

God Bless,
Mr.Mom

THANK YOU LORD!
Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when the alarm rings, thank you, Lord, that I can hear. There are many who are deaf.

Even though I keep my eyes closed against the morning light as long as possible, thank you, Lord, that I can see. Many are blind.

Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising, thank you Lord, that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedridden.

Even though the first hour of my day is hectic, when socks are lost, toast is burned and tempers are short, my children are so loud thank you, Lord, for my family. There are many who are lonely.

Even though our breakfast table never looks like the pictures in magazines and the menu is at times balanced, thank you, Lord, for the food we have. There are many who are hungry.

Even though the routine of my job is often monotonous, thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to work. There are many who have no job.

Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day and wish my circumstances were not so modest, thank you, Lord, for life.

If we can pass this on to most people we know, it might help a bit to make this world a better place to live in, right?
Pass it on.....
