July 17, 2022 at 6:50 pmOne day a very wealthy father took his son on a trip to the country for the sole purpose of showing his son how it was to be poor. They spent a few days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. After their return from the trip, the father asked his son how he liked the trip. “It was great, Dad,” the son replied. “Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked. “Oh Yeah,” said the son. “So what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father. The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.” “Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them.” The boy’s father was speechless. Then his son added, “It showed me just how poor we really are.” Too many times we forget what we have and concentrate on what we don’t have. What is one person’s worthless object is another’s prize possession. It is all based on one’s perspective. Sometimes it takes the perspective of a child to remind us what’s important. Something To Think About🤔 🙏🏻♥️🕊

July 18, 2022 at 10:33 amThe first home my husband and I bought was 24’ X 24’ built in 1910 with a dirt basement that was crumbling in, a leaky roof, and sagging floors. It was all we could afford. We worked hard together to fix the things that needed fixing. Even with those being some of the leanest years of our lives (but not the only ones), they were some of the happiest years as well! The Lord is good through thick and thin! Thank You, Lord, for never leaving us or forsaking us!
