I dreamed that I went to Heaven and an angel was
showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a
large workroom filled with angels. My angel guide
stopped in front of the first section and said, "This
is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to God
said in prayer are received." I looked around in this
area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels
sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper
sheets and scraps from people all over the world.
Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached
the second section. The angel then said to me, "This
is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the
graces and blessings the people asked for are
processed and delivered to the living persons who
asked for them." I noticed again how busy it was
there. There were many angels working hard at that
station, since so many blessings had been requested
and were being packaged for delivery to Earth.
Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we
stopped at the door of a very small station. To my
great surprise, only one angel was seated there, idly
doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment Section,"
my angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed
embarrassed. "How is it that? There's no work going on
here?" I asked. "So sad," the angel sighed. "After
people receive the blessings that they asked for, very
few send back acknowledgments.
"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.
"Also ...... "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 meeting without fear of
harassment, arrest, torture or death .. you are envied
by, and more blessed than, three billion people in the
world. "If your parents are still alive and still
married .. you are very rare. If you can hold your
head up and smile, you are not the norm, you are
unique to all those in doubt and despair."
Ok, what now? How can I start? 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
want, pass this along to remind everyone else how
blessed we all are.
Attn: Acknowledge Dept.: Thank You Lord!
"Thank you Lord, for giving me the ability to share
this message and for giving me so many wonderful
people to share it with." For every minute you are
angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
